“A dance that returns is a ghost dance. I click on my heels to the beat of an previous Breton bourrée. I am unable to inform you the way it was once danced, however I can present you different dances, impersonal, damaged, weak, haphazard, that seem between me and the previous woman. I salute the ghosts, I’ve come to know it is lower than me to resolve which one will enter my world”.

« The three oldies » is a title derived from a little-known Celtic triadic determine I as soon as stumbled upon : three girls, definitely witches, roughly carved out of stone, represented topless wanting straight into the viewers eyes. It’s not clear whether or not or not they play a key function in Celtic mythology, however I may hear them say « It wont be the witches which can be burning this time ».

Reflecting on the methods during which the trendy techno-capitalist creativeness is more likely to die-well, that’s, to depart behind fertile ruins, can not occur with out together with the lifeless to the dialog. « The three oldies » is a dance and music efficiency ritual bringing collectively breton people dance and garage-punk chords so as to greet the lifeless. The disruptive pressure of those two genres, that function apart modernity’s logic of productiveness —one is premodern, the opposite provides the finger to modernity—, is their means to crack open the current, making area to no matter wants to talk from the fissures of time. The dances that seem are sporadic and fragmented; they’re particles; they return from the lifeless; they’re incomplete, unachieved snippets of one thing that may have been identified, and they’re additionally the rubbish that is still after a world has already been damaged, rendered and replayed a number of occasions.
