Live@NationalSawdust:
Kyle Abraham, A.I.M, and Jlin (Toulmin Creator)
Choreographer and MacArthur Fellow Kyle Abraham and pioneering producer Jlin have come together to create a new commission exploring death, folklore, and reincarnation through a reimagining of Mozart’s Requiem in D minor. While Abraham’s work is typically performed in proscenium, for FERUS he has reconceptualized an excerpt from an evening length work, exploring abstracted movement for the digital landscape. The duet features Keerati Jinakunwiphat and Jae Neal from A.I.M by Kyle Abraham, costumed by highly noted designer Giles Deacon with musical excerpts by producer Jlin. Choreography created in collaboration with A.I.M. dancers Keerati Jinakunwiphat and Jae Neal. A short live discussion with the artists, moderated by National Sawdust’s Elena Park, followed the screening.

i m one of the few folks that are running that actually has executive experience so when i was secretary of housing and urban development for president obama one of the things that we worked on was something called the national disaster resilience competition. this was a billion dollar competition among communities that had been hit by a natural disaster within a few years before applying for funds. the goal was to invest in those communities so that they could recover or in a more sustainable way and be prepared in case there s another natural disaster. my plan calls for investing in national disaster resilience investment and also, very importantly, in pre-disaster mitigation. we don t want to wait until there s a natural disaster to actually make our communities more sustainable. i would invest in that. and then most importantly, we actually have to tackle the issue of the climate crisis so that these storms are less likely to happen in the first place. that means the entire menu of
