How to Get Started

John Cage's centenary is celebrated in this rare performance of Cage's 1989 How To Get Started-a collaborative experiment exploring improvisation and the origin of ideas. The performers bring ten ideas on notecards, choose them in random order, and extemporize on each one as they are recorded and played back in real time, creating a multi-layered "thought performance." The result is transformative, and provides a rare look into the creative mind.
