About this commission
You’re driving. You’re flying.
You’re working. You’re listening.
To WBXI 104 FM. Hi stranger,
Hi caller. You heard it here first.
The reports. Of a threat.
What’s underway and what’s needed.
Dad calling in the back-ups.
Dad swaggers, Dad testifies.
You’ve heard this one before.
This one’s just for you.
Across episodic investigations of language and gesture, Kyle Dacuyan considers cultural constructions of masculinity. What protective characters arise from fictions of vulnerability, and how do those figures shape structures of empire? Dad Rock is an export, a mood, and a method. Dad Rock is a monologue that falls apart because of poetry.
