Post Game Interview 1
2025
Duration: 2.5 hours
The Colombian College of Arts and Sciences invited MC to participate in the 2025 Undergraduate Research Showcase in Washington, DC because she received a Luther Rice Undergraduate Research Fellowship in 2024. She was instructed to present on her research project with a poster no larger than 48 x 48 inches and to wear comfortable shoes because she would be standing during the showcase, giving elevator pitches to the people walking through.
MC then put together a set and score for a performance that expanded upon her research project KNEES.
Dressed in hot pink athletic shorts, sneakers, and a plain sweatshirt, she responded to visitors’ questions like an athlete answering reporters in post game interviews: slouchy, briefly, and with sly smiles. Periodically, she drank dramatically from her water bottle and sprayed herself on the forehead. A shoebox that sat in front of her table asked visitors to “Take a zine, ask a question,” offering audience members a written explanation of KNEES and some instructions on how to interact with the artist.
MC hopes to develop this character and repeat the performance in the future.
