On Silence

for two performers
Natacha Diels and Jessie Marino 2012
Performed by On Structure

On Silence is a project conceived, produced and performed by Juraj Kojs to celebrate the centennial of John Cage (September 5, 1912 – August 12, 1992). The project consists of 13 new commissioned compositions, each 4 minutes and 33 seconds long. The duration references Cage's infamous 1952 opus with the title 4'33", which was premiered by David Tudor sitting at the instrument for the assigned time, occasionally turning score pages and performing nothing.

recipe for On Structure's On Silence:
one tea kettle
one glockenspiel
six squelching, boofing and tinkling buttons
two tacky gloves
one metal orb
one ticking clock
steep until clear, stir until graceful.
