It was fairly recently that Cal Folger Day went to New York to make music. It was in 1958 that her great-step-aunt-in-law went to New York to find herself in a textile design career.
Lots of people go to New York, in reality and in dreams: it’s the nexus of fantasy. So why wouldn’t decades dissolve when a cult-favourite street musician in a Viking hat, Moondog, crops up in two separate lives?
Through music, movement, and verbatim interview material, enter NYC as an astral plane documenting both history and self.
