Rama Gottfried & Yarn/Wire: ONTOPOIESIS

All are invited! Experimental music theater work ONTOPOIESIS asks, What connects us to our world and shapes our experience of it? How do we in turn shape the world? Composer Rama Gottfried, with production designer Anna Paniccia and piano and percussion quartet Yarn/Wire, explores new forms of music, experimental theater, and sculpture in the world premiere of ONTOPOIESIS. Bowed piano strings form clouds of fuzzy distortion. Hyper-detailed, granularly-synthesized caterpillar feet mingle in digital lightning storms and open-air ambisonic field recordings. Connect with your senses as micro and macro sounds combine to form a vibrant, emergent theatrical ecosystem of sound.
