AMP: Artists' Meeting Place and Resource Collective

Episode 14 of the LET ME BE FRANK web documentary series, “Playing With Reality” explores Frank Moore’s 48-hour performance processes, “back to the core of the ritual work”. During the same period as the Outrageous Beauty Revue, in the late 1970s, Frank started creating 48-hour pieces, altered realities centered around one person, “the pilgrim”, who signed up to obtain a list of life goals.

“Playing With Reality” takes us into the backstage of Moore’s work, describing how he was able to create a liminal performance state, melting normal reality with dream reality for the pilgrim, an “awake dream where all things were possible”.

The reading is by Kenneth Atchley, American composer, noise, drone and video artist, and member of the S.F. Bay Area electronic music community. Music by Kenneth Atchley, Stephen Emanuel and Vinnie Santino.

“Playing With Reality” features film footage and photos from the 48-hour processes themselves, as well as Frank singing “I Am Woman” at L.A.C.E. in Los Angeles in 1992.

The episode also features “48-hour Process”, the 7th installment of “How To Handle An Anthropologist”, a recurring animated feature in the Let Me Be Frank series, from the new book by the same name.

Let Me Be Frank
Episode 13 – The Plot of Fame and Good Taste

In Episode 13 of the LET ME BE FRANK web documentary series, Frank explores the power and effect of art rooted in private rituals/private performances, how this “Shamanistic Art” is needed to expand limited frames around art and creativity, and how art rooted in private channels is better able to resist the need for audience acceptance and societal pressures to tame the art down. Frank also explains his resistance to using the limiting label of “Sexual” to describe his art. This episode features footage from The Outrageous Beauty Revue, one of the major public performances created by Frank Moore that ran for 3 ½ years at the punk venue, the Mabuhay Gardens, in San Francisco in the late 1970s.
