Bitches Brew

Mambéty's Dakar collage refuses linear narrative the way Davis refuses the chorus — image-units floating in a current. Both works trust assembly over structure.

Marling's serial fable runs structure as a held current — episodes that leak past their endings. The form is Macero's edit, televised.

Calvino's cosmic fables let scientific propositions dissolve into voice — Davis's method in literary clothing. Both works treat genre as a starting condition, not a destination.

Kanté's kora-electronic crossover is Davis's gambit a continent over — a tradition braided to amplification, refusing to choose which is primary.

Yuasa's animation refuses a fixed style mid-sequence — Davis's logic, in line and colour. Both works are about the moment a form admits it can hold more.
