“how are we going to talk after this?”

CHRIS REILLY

2011-2013

A video portrait/document of conversations between myself and my then long-distance girlfriend. A body-mounted camera was created to capture simultaneous full-body video images of each of us while we faced each other in close proximity (reaching distance). We performed several portraiture/conversation sessions during in-person meetings over the course of five weeks, talking mostly about our relationship and the project itself. The title is a direct quote from one of the recorded conversations.

My then long-distance girlfriend and I shared our sheets with one another while we lived apart in Chicago and Los Angeles, respectively. We started with two sets of sheets, used them/ruined them as much as possible, and sent them unwashed to each other through the mail. We repeated the swap every few weeks over the course of about six months. During that time we documented the process and our communications over video chat.

Linguaphone of Tremulous Communion

CHRIS REILLY

2011-2013

A simple musical instrument for two players that cannot be heard by an audience. Players face each other and bite down on the opposing ends to play. Vibrations transfer from the instrument through the teeth, using each player’s nasal cavities as a resonant chamber. The instrument’s tones are very (sometimes painfully) audible to players, buy not bystanders.

During the Intimate Instruments Workshop hosted by the Hammer Museum in April 2013, participants built their own Linguaphones of Tremulous Communion. Component parts, food-safe wood dyes and finishes, hand tools and instructions for building were provided to participants. Approximately 80 instruments were built by couples and single participants.
