Building-scapes

Performance Practice as Research

An innovative performance-practice-as-research endeavour that delves into the interplay of somatic, sonic and cyclical processes within a technologically mediated space. Conceived as a site-specific experience, performers engage in real-time sound composition while interacting with the environment in the presence of the audience. The audience scans a QR code to join an audio live-stream and listens through headphones — a subtle misalignment between sight and sound that opens space for free association.

Still Pouring Sand

Short film — Trinity Laban, mentored by Becky Edmunds

A moving testimonial of Venice's high-tide tragedy of November 12th, 2019. Personal and found footage from Istituto Luce woven into a deeply resonant artistic testimony, with original soundscape. Created during the Dance and the Moving Image module of the MFA Creative Practice at Trinity Laban.

Traceable No Further

MFA Creative Practice, Trinity Laban — guided by Zoi Dimitriou

A study in the physical act of disappearance on stage — the focus and non-focus of gaze, movement and stillness embodying a vanishing act. A political gesture for those whose rights, land or recognition have been erased. Soundscape composed during the Banff Residency by Philippe Melanson and Daniel Pencer.

Möbius Devices

Performance — IQ Festival Berlin · Hangartfest · London

A performance work exploring cyclical structures, breath and sound in dialogue with site. Premiered across IQ Festival (Berlin), Hangartfest (Pesaro) and London in 2021.

NEU MA

Interactive live act with Giovanni Dinello

A movement and research project built around breath as both sound material and control interface. Software performs real-time analysis on the breath, amplifying and processing it; choreography and lighting arise from the breath data itself. In partnership with V.E.R-V. (Venice Electroacoustic Rendez-Vous) and BURBB (Biennale Urbana).
