    Hall worked in residence at EMPAC conducting research on the history of lecture-performances, from the tradition of the soapbox lecture to the relationship between contemporary artists Robert Morris and Simone Forti. The culmination of Hall’s research was a presentation that used sculptural objects, sound, and projected image, titled “Read me that part a-gain, where I disinherit everybody” after a line from composer John Cage’s 1959 Lecture on Nothing. Hall’s lecture-performance offered a succinct history of the form.
