A digital fever dream made manifest, this
world premiere Chamber Made work—by
local sound-and-light pioneer Robin Fox
and collaborators—dares to imagine a
transhuman tomorrow where software
enables the promise of utopia.
Diaspora is inspired in part by the dizzying
concepts of Australian author Greg Egan’s
legendary science fiction masterpiece of the
same name, which imagines a distant future
in which minds and machines have long been
merged.
Projection, illusions and sense-defying lasers
carve out a truly futuristic design space
to house the ensemble of extraordinary
musicians tasked with making audible
the creation of a digital life-form. A visual
symphony for machines, violin, voice,
ondes musicales, theremin and laser, this
astonishing project brings together some
of today’s finest creative minds to imagine
a mind that is yet to come. Be there at the
moment of its birth.
WORLD
PREMIERE
Inspiring, surprising
and thought-provoking.
