==========================

*GUST BURNS*

/on hearing jimi/ comprises the presentation of a series of musical 
excerpts performed on turntable, alongside a series of texts. Through 
its recursive, multi-modal interweaving of subject and object, active 
affection and passive affectability, the performance presents a 
preliminary exploration of hearing and listening that positions 
practices/conditions of aurality within a larger political-ontological 
framework.

Gust Burns is a theorist, critic, teacher, musician, and composer. 
Currently, he is finishing his dissertation, Aesthetic Ontology of 
Anti-Blackness: Prohibition and Persistence across Black Arts, at the 
University of Washington’s Department of English. Two new publications 
are forthcoming, in /New Centennial Review/ (Summer 2023) and /Cultural 
Critique /(Fall 2023). Burns received his MFA from the Milton Avery 
Graduate School of the Arts at Bard College, directed and organized the 
Seattle Improvised Music Festival for a decade, and co-founded the 
collective experimental music space Gallery 1412.

*Works on Paper <https://worksonpaper.ricercata.org> *supports 
activities that use concepts, characteristics, and histories of the 
book, and entanglements with text, as a frame for exploratory practice 
across the arts. The spring 2023 series, /Experiments in Language and 
Sound/, was curated by Robert Blatt and David Abel. For more 
information, please visit the Works on Paper site

The Works on Paper series is funded in part by the Regional Arts & 
Culture Council.
