SOA:
Speeches, 2006 is a one-hour track composed of five reenacted
speeches delivered in 2000 at the School of the Americas. It begins
with the speech delivered by the school's director in December at the
institution's closing ceremony and it is followed by other official
public addresses that preceded it. All share a celebratory rhetoric
of the school's mission in Latin America as aiding to disseminate democracy
and freedom and all of them negate any accusation of human rights violations
attributed to the school's graduates.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The
speeches have been slightly modified by changing all pronouns from first
to third person and viceversa, thus confusing the addressees disclaiming
statements. This audio track has been further manipulated formally: the
audio frequencies vary drastically throughout the sequence form lowest
to highest, creating a disconcerting abstraction/figuration dialectic
in the deliverer's diction. |
