Overview

Description - In The Quiet Volume—set at the iconic San Diego Central Library -- recorded instructions and a stack of carefully selected books direct you through this contemplative, self-generated performance for two audience members sitting side by side. Taking cues from words both written and whispered, participants find themselves burrowing an unlikely path through a pile of books.
The Quiet Volume takes of what we think of as a deeply personal experience to lean out into the surrounding space, collides one reader's sphere into another's, and exposes the strange magic at the heart of the reading experience.
