'Shards' is a oneness of performance and transformation, transformation as performance. As Jason Moran and Marcus Gilmore play, BlankFor.ms records micro fragments of time and sends them back to his collaborators sped up, slowed down, reversed, broken into ever tinier grains of data and smeared into a sparkling blur. Moran and Gilmore receive glimpses into their immediate past, or even further back in time, like they're playing into a broken mirror - not just cracked in its visual plane, but in the sense of its shards shattering time and light, showing them past and future.
