Press Representation Annie Ohayon Media Relations, 250 West 57th Street, Suite 716, New York, NY 10107 1: (212) 262-4492; F: (212) 262-5306; [email protected] 18 Program Notes on I began to work on this project because a multimedia producer was making Songs and Stories a series for high school kids about books. He was worried that books are from Moby Dick disappearing and he wanted to do something that would get kids interested by Laurie Anderson in reading. So he asked several artists to pick their favorite books and write monologues about why they liked them. I chose Moby Dick. Although pieces of Melville's text have cropped up in some of my songs and films over the years, I hadn't really read the whole book since high school. And I was a bit nervous. I had a vague recollection of being very bored by a lot of the whaling details and technical paraphemalia. I also remember thinking that the captain and his obsession with the whale was a bit over the top, too fantastic, too Shakespearean. Then I read it again. And it was a complete revelation. Encyclopedic in scope, the book moved through ideas about history, philosophy, science, religion, and the natural world towards Melville's complex and dark conclusions about the meaning of life, fear, and obsession. Being a somewhat dark person myself, I fell in love with the idea that the mysterious thing you look for your whole life will eventually eat you alive. The project for high school kids never materialized, but I read Moby Dick five more times in a row. I began to hear it as music. The rambling, rolling sen­ tences, the lapses into iambic pentameter, the lyrical poems all mixed with the thees and thous of another time. And the stories? On one level, Moby Dick is a magnificent collection of essays and short stories about the night sky, the behavior of polar bears, theories about the origin of the universe, all entwined with countless bits of information about rope and weather and oars and the many objects of a lost nineteenth-century world. Call Me Whatever Moby Dick is also a tour de force in narrative style. With most books, it takes a few chapters to identify the author's voice. For me, the first three words ("Call me Ishmael") are among the strangest in the book. As the book unfolds, it becomes virtually impossible to find the author. He's hundreds of people: accountant, botanist, lawyer, philosopher, dreamer, preacher, historian. These narrative styles and forms of address morph rapidly. And it's this daring approach to narrative voices that I've found most exciting and original about the book. Imagistic, concise, and associative, Melville built his world and inhabited it with a cast of the living and the dead. Spinoza, Noah, Job, and Jonah sailed on the doomed Pequod just as much as Ahab, Ishmael, Pip, Queequeg, and the crazy cook. Is Moby Dick a Of course-from page one we know the ship will go down. Everything relent­ Tragedy? lessly moves to that vanishing point. But for me the Pequod is more like the Mayflower than the Titanic. When the Titanic sinks it's spectacular; it sinks expensive technology, money, power, and savoir faire. It's a perversely satisfying experience, like blowing up the White House in Independence Day. But when the Pequod sinks, it takes a whole universe down with it while somehow building a new one. So what does Melville have to say to late-twentieth-century Americans? Obsessive, technological, voluble, and in search of the transcendent, we're a lot like our nineteenth-century forbears. Melville's search for meaning is 19 alternately frustrating and illuminating, multilayered and elusive, like the great white whale he searches for. For me, a key question is asked, almost as an afterthought, at the end of Father Mapple's famous sermon, "So what is a man if he outlives the lifetime of his God?" Yes, really. What do you do when you no longer believe in the things that have driven you? How do you go on? Translation and Translating a complex and classic literary text into a multimedia procuction is Invention a completely new kind of project for me. I've attended enough meetings of the Melville Society and read enough issues of the newsletter over the years to know that whatever I did with the book would inevitably have many gaps. Eventually, I decided not to try to represent the characters but to try to catch the spirit of the book and some of Melville's ideas that I find the most challenging. Visually, I've tried to create several levels for the action by making a set where characters can emerge and then be reabsorbed into a more abstract place, a device I've used in pieces like The Nerve Bible. The images themselves­ words, water, paper, flowing textures, gritty machines, fire, and constellations­ are meant not so much to conjure a place as to create a parallel dream world as well as to provide visual counterpoint to the sound. As for characters, the performers in Songs and Stories ... shift through many roles and voices; sometimes they're readers, sometimes sailors, sometimes commentators or critics. Of course there is no way to tell the whole story in an evening. My goal is to translate some of my favorite parts of the book into music and images that suggest the flavor and strangeness and beauty of Melville's world. And finally to make a world of my own where ideas and obsessions take a new sensual form. So how much of this According to my very fast computer, approximately ten percent: Sometimes show is actually I picked my favorite passages and left them alone ("Seat thyself sultanically Melville's text? among the moons of Saturn..."). Other times I used only an idea or phrase to build a song ("Because in all men there reside certain properties, occult and wondrous and hidden."). Other times, in the spirit of Melville's digressions, I just invented things and added whatever I felt like adding. In writing lyrics and words that would be singable and sayable, I've used several methocs to shorten the words and make them resonate when spoken aloud. In addition to the discursive quality of the text, much of Melville's Photo: Frank Mice/otla language rings very differently for us than for his contemporaries who knew 20 (continued on page 45) their Bibles better. When Melville wrote llConsider the subtleness of the sea ... and how its most dreaded creatures glide underwater carrying on eternal war­ fare since the world began," this no doubt alerted his readers that he was making a dark rhyme with llConsider the lilies of the field ..." from the Sermon on the Mount, a message that expressed the polar opposite meaning-God not as benevolent provider but as prolific inventor of malevolent creatures. The World of Sound To start with, obviously Melville was unaware that whales can talk and sing. He compared them to the lltongueless crocodiles of the Nile" and most of his descriptions of them are visual or spiritual. In fact, Moby Dick is a curiously silent book. For every description of sound there are hundreds of visual descriptions. Instead, the music is all in the words and the way they riff and trip, skip and lumber. The only actual instrument is a lone tambourine. I once wrote to Thomas Pynchon and asked for his permission to write an opera based on Gravity's Rainbow. I didn't really expect an answer from this famously silent man. However, a few weeks later a letter arrived. He graciously complimented me on my idea and said of course I could do it; his only con­ dition was that the whole opera be scored for solo banjo. Some people have the nicest way of saying no. Musically I've tried to include many of the natural sounds of Melville's world, the clicking patterns of the sperm whale's language, the creaks and groans of a ship, wild winds. Many of the basic tracks were recorded with a small ensemble of musicians-Joey Baron on drums, Skuli Sverrisson on bass and sampled sounds, myself on keyboards and samples, with additional touches from Peter Scherer and Bill Frisell. These sounds were heavily processed with digital filters. The live string instruments that join these mixes-violin, bass, charango, and guitar-are processed in similar ways. As usual, many of the live vocals are also run through filters. The Talking Stick The Talking Stick is a new instrument that I designed in collaboration with a team from Interval Research and Bob Bielecki. It is a wireless instrument that can access and replicate any sound. It works on the principle of granular synthesis. This is the technique of breaking sound into tiny segments, called grains, and then playing them back in different ways. The computer rearranges the sound fragments into continuous strings or random clusters which are played back in overlapping sequences to create new textures. The grains are very short, a few hundredths of a second. Granular synthesis can sound smooth or choppy depending on the size of the grain and the rate at which they're played. The grains are like film frames. If you slow them down enough you begin to hear them separately. Many of the voices in Moby Dick are phantom-like. The Talking Stick is a physical representation of the disembodied voice as well as an extremely physical, digital descendant of turntables. Melville's Bible When I told a friend I was working on a project based on Moby Dick he just about went crazy. He said, llMoby Dick?! Moby Dick?" He said he had some­ thing for me and a few days later he brought over a big box. Inside was Melville's Bible, which Melville bought just before he began writing Moby Dick. It was filled with pencil notes and markings, many of which his wife 45 had apparently erased (their relationship being constantly being erased, reinterpreted, and far from idyllic). reshaped through many different lenses and fil­ ters. It has been a fascinating, frustrating, and My friend, who had gotten the Bible at Sotheby's, wild journey for me, trying first to understand the had checked through the Morgan Library and their book and then to bring it to life in a new way. contacts with the FBI, to see if it would be possible Melville dedicated Moby Dick to his friend Natha­ to reconstruct the passages that had been erased. niel Hawthorne, whose approval he sought The consensus was that this would have been throughout the writing of the book. Disappointed possible if the marks had been erased 30 years by Hawthorne's reaction, Melville dedicated his ago, but not 150. So, I went combing through the next book to a mountain.
