A Tale of Magicians Who Puffed Up Money that Lost its Puff

watch the premiere performance of the title work
Kaia Sand’s work always interests me: her inventories, interventions, recordings, dispatches, her mixing memos into songs, her soundings and measurements and exposés. These are lived poems, necessary and urgent and I learn from them. She is to be honored, read, shared, and given our undivided attention.
