Mime Radio was performed and written orally by Benjamin Seror at a series of events over a two-year period, then transcribed and edited into a novel. The story revolves around a cast of eccentric characters, who meet at the Tiki Coco, a bar in Los Angeles that holds “Challenging Reality Open Mic” nights for amateur inventors and performers. Eventually, the protagonists get caught up in trying to help Marsyas, a character from ancient Greek mythology that lost his body after being defeated in a music contest against the god Apollo, to recover his voice, his very ancient voice. Unbeknownst to them, this recovery unleashes a disaster... Mime Radio is a novel about how language and perception can be one and the same.
Mime Radio will be launched at Kunstverein, Amsterdam on Thursday, April 30, from 7 to 10 pm, at the occasion of Benjamin Seror’s exhibition Mime radio (notes for chapter I to XII), on view from April 23 until May 2.
