Purest Spiritual Pigs' The Swine Show

Cinematic, Choreographic, Audio-fantastic. Picture a freight train,
carrying Dadaists, a Gene Kelly handbook and the soundtrack for Dantes'
Inferno.
Now, picture a derailment. . Music, performance art, choreography, video.
Artists include: Boi Bella, Nastalie Bogira, Cody Bourdot, Jaime Carrera,
Sarah Gordon, Natasha Hassett, Tyler Jensen, Jeffry Lusiak, Kelley A.
Meister, Raymond Rea, Kelley A. Meister, Heather Spear, Helena Thompson and
Max Wirsing.

Recently featured on ALL THINGS CONSIDERED, Purest Spiritual Pigs is a
project instigated by Helena Thompson. The intent of Purest Spiritual Pigs
is to amass a revolving door of artists for collaboration. These works
include: music, visual, conceptual and performing arts. The artists that
Thompson invites into Purest Spiritual Pigs are chosen because there is a
common thread between them and/or she feels that Purest Spiritual Pigs works
can grow by their collaborating.
The Swine Show is a showcase of these different collaborations, reflecting
works conceived between 2007 and the present.
The show will include: live performances of songs from Purest Spiritual
Pigs' new CD (Body Misses), video documentation of Purest Spiritual Pigs
conceptual work,
and SHREDS TWO *. In Shreds, a group of choreographers and video artists are
given 20 different "remnant soundtracks" to choose from. The remnant tracks
are the unused byproducts of recent Purest Spiritual Pigs projects. They
range from 30 seconds, to 2 minutes and can be used in any way the artist
chooses (looping, combining, adding, butchering etc). The artists then
create work to the soundtracks they choose. *SHREDS ONE took place in 2007.
