"Ominous" an incarnated sound sculpture performance
Live acoustic sounds from the performer's body are digitally sculpted through a choreography of physical gesture. The result is an unstable sonic object which oscillates between high density and violent release. The listeners see through sound the sculpture which their sight cannot perceive.
