This event is related to the MFA + MDes Thesis Exhibition. Katie Schroeder and David Burr present an intimate conversation over a slightly competitive game of tetherball. With fists, palms and force players strive for victory by successfully wrapping a ball tightly around a post, weighed by sand, or embedded deep in the earth. It is not a formally competitive game, it is child’s play. This video centers on two adults who find themselves engaged in youthful wargames and mediating personal conflicts with aggressive paddling and minor cardio exasperation around this monolithic linguistic mechanism.
