"Why do you keep, why do you give out free music, why do you do this, why why
Because I'm weezy?
I'm different.
I have plenty of it.
So, There's nothing for me to share.
Priceless, that's why it's free."
Outro van Lil Wayne's No Ceiling Mixtape
In dem Jahr, in dem Merce Cunningham und Pina Bausch gestorben sind, stellt sich aber auch die Frage, wie der traditionelle Tanz bewahrt, archiviert, weitergegeben werden kann.
Gibt es denn einen Imperativ, der sagt, man sollte?
Soll man nicht?
Nein. Ich war heute bei meinen Rechtsanwälten und Steuerberatern, um zu erfahren, was ich mit meinem Erbe machen muss. Wenn das Finanzamt nach meinem Tod alle meine Choreografien sieht und jede mit nur 30.000 Euro bewerten würde, wäre meine Familie ruiniert. Sie müssten so viel Erbschaftssteuer zahlen, dass sie nichts mehr hätten, gar nichts mehr. Nur weil die Werke anscheinend so viel wert sind. Deswegen bin ich zu meinem Notar gegangen und habe festgelegt, dass alle meine Stücke nach meinem Tod nicht mehr aufgeführt werden dürfen - um meine Familie zu schützen.

(Tommy-Chat Just E-mailed Me)
2006, 7:15 min, color, sound
Trecartin describes (Tommy-Chat Just E-mailed Me) as a "narrative video short that takes place inside and outside of an e-mail." Trecartin's intense visualization of electronic communication is inhabited by a cast of stylized characters: Pam, a Jewish lesbian librarian with a screaming baby in an ultra-modern hotel room; Tammy and Beth, who live in an apartment filled with installation art; and Tommy, who is seen in a secluded lake house in the woods. Pam, Tommy and Tammy are all played by Trecartin, who, wearing his signature make-up, jumps back and forth between male and female roles.
Totally self-absorbed and equipped with vestigial attention spans, the characters are constantly communicating with one another on the phone or online. Their e-mail exchanges and Internet searches are channeled into bright animations that intersect with the "real world" locations. The story moves from person to person like a browser surfing through Web pages. Engrossed in manic electronic interactions, the characters become increasingly isolated and solipsistic.
What's The Love Making Babies For
2003, 20 min, color, sound
Trecartin's extraordinary digital manipulations reach a new level as he speculates in vivid animation about reproduction, sexuality, and contemporary moralities. Collapsing footage appropriated from television, the Internet, and pop culture, Trecartin and his elaborately costumed collaborators manufacture an alien yet familiar reality. Inside this startling new video world, technophile gods wearing acid-washed denim argue about the future of gender and produce cryptic TV commercials. In a surreal backyard town meeting, characters deliver disjointed polemics assembled from clashing phrases that could have originated in ad campaigns, instant messaging conversations, or twisted episodes of syndicated science fiction. Constructed from the raw material of disposable media clichés and fads, Trecartin's narrative leaves us to answer the riddles he poses.
Yo A Romantic Comedy
2002, 12 min, color, sound
In Yo A Romantic Comedy, Trecartin borrows clichés from hip-hop culture and genre films to craft a dark, dream-like narrative that veers from comic melodrama to goth fantasy. Applying his signature digital editing and delirious sound processing to remarkable effect, Trecartin creates an alternative narrative universe that suggests a kind of psychodramatic hyper-reality.
