AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'An instant of uncertainty. A soy-soaked noodle slips from between your chopsticks. Something stuns you. A moment so captivating you forget your own name. In this development, isthisyours? explores notions and experiences of forgetting. They will collect and then dispose of great texts, draw on the immortality of Elvis and Marilyn only to destroy it in search of something easily forgotten. Using photos, old slides, and writing wonderfully long lists, the ensemble will make images, sounds and text to create a masterful insight into forgetfulness and the fantasy of forever.'
