About Me


Hello.
My name is Wagner Israel Cilio III.
I do house shows.
I sometimes tour and I sometimes write about it
All ambient sounds created using various filters on vocals and objects found in my basement.
-----------------------------------------------------------
"Much in the spirit of vanguard movements such as Dada, Oiticica was concerned with abolishing the separation between art and life. In other words, the question for Oiticica was not how reality was represented in art but how experiments in art could be applied to life. His conceptualization of vanguardist practice was not based on aesthetic innovation but rather on the creation of what Brazilian critic Mario Pedrosa called "ambient antiart" that would create sites and contexts for collective behavioral experiments. Art was to be an "experimental exercise in liberty" capable of transforming individuals through sensory experience." For Oiticica, the artist should be a "proposer of practices" and not as creator of artistic objects for passive contemplation." (p. 84)
Christopher Dunn, from Brutality Garden: Tropicalia and the Emergence of a Brazilian Counterculture
