Psychic Liberation Night: Reece Cox + Glyn Maier

Reece Cox
"Beneath one's skin is a selfhood free from all worldly burdens. The path to liberation begins with a small incision of the epidermis at the site of one's choosing, followed by a steadfast commitment to peeling and tearing. Those who complete the process will be instantly met with everlasting peace. God bless the rest."

Reece Cox will present a reading to musical accompaniment from an ongoing series of text based works titled Applications or The Disciplinary Arts orbiting around themes of art production, institutional language and protocols, and contemporary bodily experience in narrative and nonnative texts deploying critique, body horror, humor and irony.Reece Cox is a Berlin-based artist, musician and writer. In recent years, he has presented performances with his ongoing project Poser at Sara's (New York), KW, and Roter Salon der Volksbühne, Galerie Gisela Capitain, among others. In addition, Cox has staged solo and collaborative performances and exhibitions at CCA (Berlin), Magenta Plains (New York), Neue Galerie Gladbeck (Gladbeck), House (Berlin), September Sessions (Stockholm), Shahin Zarinbal (Berlin), Sara's (New York), among others.  


Glyn Maier
Glyn Maier is a sound artist and field recordist living in North Carolina.Non-city outdoor spaces are essential to Maier’s practice. With a formal education in physics and music composition, Maier’s preoccupations with natural objects, landscapes, and their social histories guide his recordings, which are then integrated into ambient electronic works utilizing organic rhythms and complex timbres. Maier’s abstract synthesis work is deeply informed by sound design, but his larger focus is on the agency of both machine and environment. Another facet of Maier’s sonic practice is enmossed, the label he founded in 2017. Dedicated to contemporary sound, all profits are donated to positive causes of the artist’s choice, and materials for the tapes and records are hand-constructed out of recycled materials. Its catalogue of records and cassettes is distributed internationally by shops such as Industrial Coast (UK), Rope Editions (Korea), and Tobira Records (Japan).
