ANAÏS DUPLAN


INFORMATION

   IN HIS FOURTH BOOK, Anaïs Duplan reinvents ekphrasis as an act of devotion to art as both the sense-archive and future tense of Black embodiment. In this vibrant thinkspace (where thinking is singing), Duplan hosts a vivid community of Black musicians, performers, painters, photographers, poets, critics, filmmakers and video artists, even a chorus of lovelorn chatroom denizens. I Need Music hosts the lyric re-arrivals of unquiet pasts, enacts a haptic intimacy with the present, and vibrates with the immanence of Black, queer futures.

   THIS COMPANION SITE houses the notes, acknowledgments, responses, miscellany, etc. that made I NEED MUSIC possible.
