dada danites
with Erin Elliott, 2016

Two books contain scripts for a dadaist rewrite of Joaquin Miller’s play, The Danites in the Sierras. Marked as Player One and Player Two, both books indicate which lines the player with that book should read. As pages are turned in order, some lines are read by the books themselves via sound modules embedded inside the pages.
