Meggie Remy - Old Man Trim Tab [excerpt]
In an inneresting coincidence, this July 12th gig fell on the birthday of two unique Americans — Buckminster Fuller and Oscar Hammerstein II — both of whom were born on July 12, 1895. Meggie Remy used that as a jumping-off point to look at what these men had in common: a sort of optimism, and a belief that small gestures could create large changes in complex systems. A reminder, in these troubled times of grifters and profiteers, that decency and inventiveness were once considered key parts of the American character. This tape collage piece juxtaposes some interviews from the pair along with appearances of several versions of Hammerstein's "Old Man River".
