A Nocturnal Listening, performance

The performance invites us to share a moment of the night, immersing eyes and ears in sounds and voices that reveal the connections between dreams, mythical time, and storytelling. Through low-frequency oscillations, field recording and electromagnetic sensing, we will explore sonic worldings, delving into the voices of witches, seers, and poets—among others who perceive through different beings.

​

Membranous memories, invoking the encounter of sound waves and skin, inviting the audience to weave together, distance and proximity, movement and rest, walking and lying down.
