Show Preperation

I am now preparing for the show that I will be mainly using as the content for the creation of my sound peice. I have included the songs I have been working on as previously described including other new music. The structure of the performance is first to shock and destabilize the audience, to rip away their feelings of control and understanding of the space and use the sonic intensity to ellicit visceral reactions within the audience. This overwhelming pressure is then guided through more structured albeit equally intense songs that act as guides through the emotions and intensity of the performance. At the end of the performance I am playing the song that blends both ambient ethereal soundscapes and visceral, violent sound design to imply the completion of the emotional process of transmuting chaotic feelings and events into something more intergrative. I have decided to play a Justin Beiber song at the very end to act as a reward and celebration of the completion of this process, and embody the moment of relief and euphoria that arrives when one makes it to the end. I belive that with the sonic structure of the show, I can capture a shifting dynamic in audience participation and their evolving presence in the performance through screams or comments that may come through the audio recording.
