Title A name given to the resource Mercuria, 1995-98, multimedia performance Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 1995-1998 Description An account of the resource “Mercuria” was a collaborative multimedia project that Lynn Book developed and performed with vocal artist and Meredith Monk company member, Theo Bleckmann from 1995 to 1998. The Mercuria collection is comprised of several video documents from Chicago and New York including the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago, and at HERE in New York City. Overall, the artists considered this project an encounter with the fluidity of time, desire, sexuality and memory through robust vocal and physical experimentation and composition. They co-designed the lighting and staging, as well as the real time recording through various audio cassette players known as the ‘walkman’. Book was the primary writer of text passages for the performance, with Beckmann contributing to more improvised sections, such as “Two Fighters”. “Mercuria” got its start as “In Passing” when Book was invited for a project residency at one of Chicago’s most enduring alternative artist-run spaces (1973-1997). She and Bleckmann, who lived in New York, launched their process via “mail, fax, phone and tape”. Collaborators along the way included, Chris Pretorious, Eric Leonardson and Jens Brand. The collection includes several video documents, both edited and complete performances, performance text and notes, color slides and photo stills, venue brochures and announcements, and press reviews.

Title A name given to the resource Mercuria, 1997, New York City, HERE, edited video documentation Description An account of the resource Lynn Book collaborated with vocal artist Theo Bleckmann on Mercuria, a multimedia performance work developed and performed over the course of almost 3 years with iterations occurring in Chicago and New York at several venues including the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago and at HERE in New York City. Overall, the artists considered this project a meditation on the fluidity of time, desire and memory and focused their efforts on their vocal and physical experimentation and composition. They co-designed the lighting and staging, as well as the real time recording through various audio cassette players known as the ‘walkman’. Book was the primary writer of text passages for the performance, with Beckmann contributing to more improvised sections, such as “Two Fighters”. This 8-minute edited video documentation from the final performance in January 1998 at HERE crystallized many of the concepts and structures that were endemic to the original performance in 1995 titled “In Passing”, N.A.M.E.

Title A name given to the resource Mercuria, 1995-98, multimedia performance Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 1995-1998 Description An account of the resource “Mercuria” was a collaborative multimedia project that Lynn Book developed and performed with vocal artist and Meredith Monk company member, Theo Bleckmann from 1995 to 1998. The Mercuria collection is comprised of several video documents from Chicago and New York including the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago, and at HERE in New York City. Overall, the artists considered this project an encounter with the fluidity of time, desire, sexuality and memory through robust vocal and physical experimentation and composition. They co-designed the lighting and staging, as well as the real time recording through various audio cassette players known as the ‘walkman’. Book was the primary writer of text passages for the performance, with Beckmann contributing to more improvised sections, such as “Two Fighters”. “Mercuria” got its start as “In Passing” when Book was invited for a project residency at one of Chicago’s most enduring alternative artist-run spaces (1973-1997). She and Bleckmann, who lived in New York, launched their process via “mail, fax, phone and tape”. Collaborators along the way included, Chris Pretorious, Eric Leonardson and Jens Brand. The collection includes several video documents, both edited and complete performances, performance text and notes, color slides and photo stills, venue brochures and announcements, and press reviews.
