>Speaking: "a performance that bridges distance and rejects mediation"
>
>In this performance three "Iraq Veterans Against the War" bridge the
>distance to the Iraq War with memories.  These memories are spoken
>testimonies that reject the sensationalized, binary, and ideological
>narratives presented by politicians and mass media.  
>
>In contrast the emotions and anxieties of a personal war experience are
>embraced, resulting in layers of dialog that complicate not only mass
>media's narrative of the war but also the visual memory expressed in the
>painting "Between F.O.B. Junction City and the Tigres River..."
