Entanglement: An Experimental Performance from Josh Couturier on Vimeo.
[Audio Link]
Concept: Develop An Experimental Sound and Movement Performance using a Nautical Fishing net as the conductor for each.
Sound Experiment: Synthesize pop rhythms using pop instruments and pop mixing/mastering techniques to create a feeling of industrial-esque sounds and stress of living organisms. The Nautical Fishing net also was thrown over the computer to make decisions in the composition that would contribute to note pitch, length, and numbers of occurrence.
Performance Experiment: Create an Avant-garde minimalist movement piece using meditation, and the Nautical fishing net to Detangle in real time unknowing the outcome during the duration 6:21. (Soundtrack Duration)
“I found myself thinking after 30 minutes on the cold dark floor, struggling wondering before the performance, will I escape my Entanglement?”
Comments:
“It reminded me of a Houdini escape!”
“It reminded me of being in the Holland tunnel!”
“Something sounded like creatures hissing!”
“Yo is this thrash metal?”
“I was’nt sure if you were going to escape by the time the audio ended?!”
“I dont think you should call this Entanglement, I think it should be called Detangled…”
