something is happening was my piece from the first year of the pandemic which reflected on a variety of cultural hallmarks and structures of feeling of the era: feelings of isolation, a return to nostalgic sentimentality, and musical slowness. Fortunately for myself, I indulged these things in a fairly abstract way.

This work was performed by Connie Volk, Mabel Kwan, Jesse Langen, and Chris Wild and was directed by Hannah Barnes.
