(re)PRODUCTION is a digital performance by Kurtis Lesick exploring the embedded power relationships within reproduction and the archive. An homage to Alvin Lucier, (re)PRODUCTION layers a reading from Cormac McCarthy’s “Blood Meridian” with its subsequent copies distorting meanings “to expunge them from the memory of man.”
