SUMMARY:'Demo Accords': Author Reading and Chat with Pia Long (online)
DESCRIPTION:Sign up: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/demo-accords-author-reading-and-chat-with-pia-long-online-tickets-1761739362859?aff=oddtdtcreator \n– \nJoin us as we welcome perfumer and writer Pia Long for a discussion about her new book\, DEMO ACCORDS. Attendance for this online event is by donation through Eventbrite. \nDEMO ACCORDS is an interdisciplinary art project combining nine essays\, one short story and ten fully published perfume formulas with original illustrations into a multlayered narratve. A “demo accord” is fragrance industry speak for an open formula shown at trade shows in order to demonstrate a new perfumery ingredient or technique. A demonstration in political context is a protest. \nIn this work perfumer and author Pia Long explores the intersection between her two lifelong loves: writing and perfumery. Part manifesto\, part polemic\, part protest\, part autobiography\, the common thread is radical vulnerability of the perfumer’s art\, practice and personal views. \nInterrogating some fundamental questions about who perfumery belongs to and creating a parallel platform without a brand or a commercial consumer product\, Demo Accords aims to exist for its own sake as a project that uses perfumery as an artistic storytelling device. \nIf the book is a script\, then the formulas are sheet music\, and the actual resulting liquid is therefore the orchestra playing. It is not necessary or compulsory to buy the liquid perfume sample kit to go with the book but it will help everyone hear the music. \nThe book has significant contributions from Nick Gilbert who wrote the scent descriptions and notes lists\, as though for a protest perfume brand. Featuring original illustrations from multiple artists and a full colour cover by a Brighton street artist\, Demo Accords is more than the sum of its parts. \nLearn more about DEMO ACCORDS and order.
