Live music ; Dead bodies

MARCS Institute for Brain, Behaviour & Development

Research output: Creative Works › Audio or Visual recording

Abstract

Live Music; Dead Bodies is a sound technodrama: it interweaves spoken text, technologically manipulated speech, and live improvised instrumental music with a 'comprovisational' score by Roger Dean. The text by Hazel Smith is composed of a collage of narrative fragments, poetry and prose. It moves between several different times and spaces, some specific, some ambiguous, some real, some unreal. Playing on the implications of the title, Live Music; Dead Bodies interweaves ideas and questions about live and recorded performance, the relationship of sound to the body, and music's capacity to create social change.
