In collaboration, two become one—but the process isn't always easy. Who speaks and who is silenced? In "April 30th" two figures attempt to tell one story, in the process raising questions about how we narrate and construct our lives, who we are, and what we know.

Based on Borsuk and Fitch's AS WE KNOW (Subito, 2014), an erased and redacted diary that presents the most unmediated-seeming idiom—the diurnal, journalistic record—as itself the consequence of methodical and whimsical extraction, foregrounding the tensions of authorship.
