Condition:
Percussion is an attempt?in the author's words?to make sense of "senseless beating," to grasp how rhythm makes sense in music and society. In the process he touches on such topics as the separation of slaves and drums in the era of the slave trade, the migration of rural blacks to urban centers of the North, the practice and politics of "rough music," the links between interpellation and possession, the general strike, beating fantasies, and the concept of the "skin ego.".
