Translating to “from one fragment to another,” D'un fragment à l'autre is a sonic retrospective of “exhumed” fragments from Bergsonist's published body of work and a collaboration with multimedia artist and longtime visual collaborator Greg Zifcak.

Brooklyn-based, Moroccan-born Selwa Abd uses the fictional character Bergsonist (derived from Gilles Deleuze’s Bergsonism) as her musical guise. For this performance, she has written a sonic ode to the decaying Internet.
ISSUE's 2017 fall season opens at the First Unitarian Congregational Society in Brooklyn Heights with celebrated process-musician William Basinski, Brooklyn-based artist Selwa Abd’s Bergonist project, and Houston-born digipoet YATTA each in solo performance.
