A bygone lizard infiltrates dreamily into the little songs of the mutilated

"A bygone lizard infiltrates dreamily into the..." is the thirty-sixth volume of Exquisite Corpse music from the sound art initiative Little Songs Of The Mutilated. Created between October 12th- 17th 2020, the process adapts the old Surrealist parlour game for an online sound and music collaboration. The 6 pieces were worked on concurrently, one round per day, each with an unique permutation to the order of players to maximize both the variety in results and challenge in the process. The only parameter predetermined was the duration of each contribution.

Released November 1, 2020

Composed/created by: Gelareh Pour, Zela Papageorgiou, Casey Louise Moir, Carl, Anders Lindeberg, Marley Del Prete, Bonnie Stewart & Reuben Lewis.

Collage art by Justin Ashworth.

Curated by Reuben Lewis.
