Mary Rapp - Cello

Perpetually curious, Mary has spent 20 years studying and performing all kinds of music. She started in classical cello, moved on to jazz double bass, became obsessed with improvisational constructs, moved to Korea to study p’ansori singing, and just recently finished a doctorate for which she combined acoustics science and improvised music. This background informs her solo cello playing which features hypnotic, dream-like soundscapes, and no holds barred improvisation.

Reinventing the Spinning Wheel 

with Adam Gottlieb, Bonnie Stewart & Peter Farrar

Once upon a time, long long ago, in a time not too far in the future from our current time, because as we all know, the river of time that flows linearly from past, through the present, into the future, when viewed from without is only a thread rotating around the wheel of time, which itself isn’t flat(ish) like a wheel but more like a sphere, yet not three-dimensional like a sphere, but probably like 8 dimensional, (on account of the sideways 8 creating the infinity sign etc.) and this wheel is time and space in its entirety and the thread is time experienced linearly, and the present we are experiencing is, relatively speaking, quite relative to where you happen to be spatially within that figure 8 wheel and so all pasts that have ever been and all futures that will ever be are constantly occurring.
And the wheel is going round and round for all eternity (I’m not sure which direction) spinning the endless yarn of life, except really there’s billions of threads on billions of wheels all holographically superimposed on top of each other and if you’re picturing it, it means you’re also picturing a space in which it exists, which also isn’t correct, because all space is inside it, and theres actually no real motion, because movement is only a product known from within time, where as this whole thing is out of time...
