Here is a gift for the New Year:
This is a sound-poetic review of Rasheedah Phillips' Dismantling the Master's Clock: On Race, Space and Time. The review includes the interconnections I see with various artists like Andre Zachery of Renegade Performance Group's Echo-Making installation at York College and Flava Flav's clock necklace.
