This performance is the result of 10 years creative development... heavily influence by zen and chaotica... extremely cut-up spoken wordart/the art of sound and premeditated intent... the progression will be one of space and meditation to extreme layering of harmonics effected voice and tanboura (ancient indian drone instrument)...the basis of sound and visuals in effect will be used as diametrics but most importantly as psychological triggers that lend elements of usually (Western mindset) macarbe expectations.In effect expecting something horrible to result due to ingrained semniotic consequence.Of course an anti climax results leaving the audience wondering in fact why it is they expected such an outcome. This is definately not a performance for those with a pacemaker installed... due to extreme usage of frequencies that will affect the physical reality of all humans present.
