Why performance art?

Because of my composition training. 🎼 I'm far from the first (or last) of my fellow avant-garde composers to do some kind of performance art on Facebook that involved trolling people. Nic Snowball is one that I heard of, but Gareth and Lilith was probably a similar thing. That insouciance is literally part of the atmosphere. That's what we're trained to do. - I've just got more chops. Jane was a Theatre minor, so that's why I took acting. I mostly hated that acting paper, despite doing quite well in it. Movies are my passion. That's my main thing outside of my composer/lyricist dream. I'm not interested in stage offers. Meet me before you judge me, people that are snarky hipsters who think they're better than me. - My main criticism is that my peers don't write accessible music. That's their problem. I hate it up on the hill where they do the boogie. That's not my happy place.
