In 2012 Danspace Project presented two historic Platforms, Parallels and Judson Now. In 2013 we continue to explore artistic constellations and lineages. What web of connections do new generations of artists trace? Who are their influences? This season we ask each artist to share a significant artistic influence.

Darrell Jones:

this shape inspires

to spiral      the breath     use sound as after effect of friction of nothing          sound of nothing       an echo of nothing       hollowing to nothing       what you hear is not of origin       most hear distortion       you hear origin of sound       bellowing anges       the ram’s horn

to spiral       break into thee       give god not chance       let his comeuppance        sin in like love       run out into nothing       you fucking monster

to spiral       look into someone’s eyes       find not soul       find a dark pool       drown into nothing       wake to godhead deossifying of nothing
