A Performance exploring the nature of acousmatic listening; sound removed from visual context and understood for it’s own properties.
A dense materialist experience at the limits of contemporary computer music, drawing on Korean Shamanism and Communism; striving to create a strange new vibration to the world that seems to contain the seed of everything.
