Yes, this sounds like an especially big deal, even for Anthony Braxton, who
likes to do things in a big way. Am I correct?
And Jan 2010 is over 6 months away, still. I would like my daughter to be there
with me. So, I am asking as well, how does a person get tickets?

from Bill Shoemaker in the new Point of Departure:

Braxton's enormous contributions as a composer and improviser aside, he
exemplifies an increasingly vital form of 21st Century community building.
***
Anthony Braxton is preparing his most ambitious experiment to date, a
realization of his Social [sic?] Genome. This is not a concert in the
conventional sense; it is an interactive environment, a restructualist
theme-park for "friendly experiencers." For eight continuous hours, fifty-plus
performers will use Ghost Trance Musics compositions as the connecting principle
for the musical structure. Ensembles form and peel apart to form new
combinations; likewise, the friendly experiencers become active participants,
choosing what to listen to as they move about the space.
The Sonic Genome expresses Braxton's ideals about democracy, and the
relationship between individuals and groups. As Taylor Ho Bynum recently
explained, "The entire body of over fifty musicians can be deemed the 'country,'
which can be broken into 15-to-20 person 'state' sized ensembles, then to
three-to-five person 'city' groups. But of course, each individual is welcome to
travel about the larger country, making new artistic alliances and musical
connections. The performers can pull from throughout Braxton's rich oeuvre, from
solo and duet music to operas and compositions for creative orchestra. Musicians
can improvise in reaction to the sounds around them, choose to remain silent and
simply listen, or walk outside to take a break from the action. But the activity
in the space continues unabated."
