Soundscapes creation
‘In the cities’, inspired by Calvino, is an interdisciplinary experimental research and production project that aims to create the contemporary theatre production ‘The Global City’, a performance with a modulate structure able to be composed in a different sequence and to involve international artists, according to the different spaces and contexts hosting the residency phases. Each module is a single performance showing the different faces of a polyhedral virtual city, thanks to the multidisciplinary approach that foresees the use of different means of expression and languages: performer’s actions, original multilingual dramaturgy, electronic music and soundscapes, video mapping, VR 360°, that together will design a sort of architectural and experiential map of this Global City. Its original dramaturgy is composed by numbered memories collected in the several metropolis where the company has developed their projects. A fragmented memory drawing our globalized era: from the insuperable borders to forced disappearances, from the Korean diplomatic crisis to the Indian slums.
