Word Passed the Time New York Performances

“Word Passed the Time” is presented live at Reforesters Laboratory in New York City, in a DJ-driven electronic format featuring Charlotte Jacobs. The work treats time less as a narrative arc than as material, built from repetition, drift, and controlled interruption. Reforesters’ lab setting matters here; it frames the set as process rather than spectacle, close to the city’s history of downtown experiments in sound. One clear critical note: its restraint asks for patient listening, and not every audience will meet it halfway.
