Sound and Film
Installation
A sound and video
installation at the Swiss Hall in Tacoma, Washington. "As
the audience enters the installation space (they may arrive at any time
during the installation), they will be greeted by twin projection
screens showing original color films of people at work in distant
places such as China, Indonesia and other countries of the far east.
The performance space will be filled with the minimalist drone of the
composer's music designed to capture the acoustic characteristics
unique to the performance space. Live didgeridoo music will mix with
the pre-recorded drone intermittently. The audience will be invited to
move freely within the installation for any desired length of time--
some seating will be provided but listener/viewers will be encouraged
to move about. Projected videos and video monitors will be situated at
various positions throughout the space featuring people of far off
lands speaking anecdotally about their lives. The installation will run
continuously for six
hours."
