Oh Come
Sweet Austin Town

The Hotel Herald sings
of hallways strangely patterned round a tide of blood that's glistening!
A Ding! A Dong!
Oh something's wrong
with Wendy, Jack, and Danny Boy.
Their Holiday
All work, no play,
A talking finger as a toy!
Permit us here to make it clear
that Mr Kringle will appear
that creepy twins will deck the halls
with chopping axes, booze for all!
So gather round ye yuletide clowns
and light a candle,
stop the glooming,
pray for snow and twilight glow
prepare ye way

THE SHABOOMING!</poem>


"shìshí shì shíshì" is the sonic romanization of the Chinese sentence, "事實是實事", which loosely translates to, "Reality is a true fact". Using video, sound, and text-to-speech software, this project will explore how repetition can make words feel increasingly out-of-this-world -- especially a tonal language with a very different structural foundation than English.

Playing with juxtaposition and repetition to deconstruct old American phrases and idioms from the 1800s, Hannah Jove will perform a live poetry reading over the video and sounds of shìshí shì shìshí. Side by side, Chinese and English will encourage viewers to contemplate what exactly defines a word and how world views are defined by linguistic know-how.
