SAMPLES FROM THE SHOW:
DÆmon was a devised exploration of the bacchae which WAS COMPOSED OF 20 SCENELETS EXPLORING DIFFERENT CONCEPTS, THEMES, AND THEORIES DISCUSSED FROM THE TEXT.
MAJOR INSPIRATION STEMMED FROM LIMINALITY, PARTICULARLY THE SUPPOSED WARP OF TIME WHEN LIFE FLASHES BEFORE ONE'S EYES WHEN THEY ARE ON THE BRINK OF DEATH.
FOR MY DESIGN, I SOUGHT TO CREATE A LANGUAGE OF ORIGINAL SOUNDSCAPES TO UNDERSCORE ALMOST THE ENTIRE SHOW. WITH THE USE OF 4 MICROPHONES (TWO ON BOOMS, TWO STANDING), I CREATED A LANGUAGE WITH DIFFERENT VERBS AND EFFECTS. I ALSO RECORDED PARTS OF THE TEXT TO ALLOW FOR THE USE OF THE RECORD PLAYER AND STYLIZED MOMENTS.
