The idea of this show is to intermingle musical ideas. The form
will be similar to that of a game of "telephone," where one party
creates a seed (musical) message and each subsequent recipient of the message
attempts to recreate that message for the next, thereby involuntarily (or not)
imparting their own interpretation on the communication. Through repeated iterations
of this cycle, the message increasingly takes on the character of the communicators
and loses the qualities of the original transmission.
