CACOS (Shards) understands everyday experience as a constant interruption and reorganization of consciousness, inspired by the cut-up technique, a literary method in which texts are cut up and randomly reorganized.
But what happens if the body becomes the site of the cut? What passes through the space of a crack?
CACOS invites a game of improvisation between sound, silence, movement and stillness. By cutting into the present, it opens temporal fissures through which other dimensions can emerge.
“Anything shines under the Sun Even a rough shard Of crowned glass, a little scratched (...) The satellites, the drones, NASA up above Will see this thing shine Fragments of what we are looking for grout” — Translation of an excerpt from Quase, by Tatiana Nascimento,“Lençóis” by Luedji Luna (2020).

CACOS (Shards) compreende a experiência cotidiana como uma constante interrupção e reorganização da consciência, inspirando-se na técnica do cut-up, um método literário no qual textos são cortados e reorganizados aleatoriamente.
Mas o que acontece se o corpo for o lugar do corte? O que passa pelo espaço de uma fresta?
CACOS convida para um jogo de improvisação entre som, silêncio, movimento e quietude. Ao cortar o presente, abre fissuras temporais por onde outras dimensões podem emergir.
“Qualquer coisa brilha sob o Sol Até um caco tosco De vidro coronado meio arranhado (...) Os satélites, os drones, a NASA lá do alto Vão ver essa coisa brilhar Fragmentos do que a gente é buscando rejunte” - Trecho do poema "Quase”, de Tatiana Nascimento, recitado na faixa "Lençóis", de Luedji Luna (2020).
