- Notes:
- Originally a five screen video installation and related photographs and drawings that features world-renowned choreographer William Forsythe (b. 1949). Forsythe’s performance lasts five and a half minutes. This is screened twice, once in real time and then at half speed for a total running time of roughly 17 minutes. The title, whenever on on on nohow on is derived from the signature phraseology of Worstward Ho (1981), a late prose work by Samuel Beckett (1906-1989).
