This is an “extreme sightreading” work in which each of the 448 pages of the redacted Report on the Investigation into Russian Interference in the 2016 Presidential Election by Special Counsel Robert S. Mueller, III appear in front of the ensemble on average for 270 milliseconds. Performers are asked to react the this “score” as quickly as possible, responding only to the redactions and colours. The brief 2 minute duration of the work, the reaction to what is hidden and moments of colour, reflects reaction to the real report, that is thought to have been read by about 3% of the US population.
