Event Details
A concert for viola, percussion and electronics exploring the transformation of sound, messages and meanings displaced by time and space. In Digital Echoes, melodic fragments of a viola are sent via internet connection to five different locations around Australia. The captured sound is then sent back to the performance space where it resonates percussion instruments, blending into the live soundscape. As the viola echoes, bouncing around the country, in and out of the live performance, its journeys create unpredictable timings, mapping the unseeable landscapes of our information highways. Digital Echoes explores translation and what is lost and gained through coding and decoding. Inviting reflection about the history and future of internet and interstellar communication, this new work from Aaron Wyatt and Speak Percussion combines remarkable technology, contemporary classical music and percussive art to create an enthralling and otherworldly score.
