Ascension | Evolve or Die Collaborative Performance
A site-specific audiovisual installation about overcoming adversity, performed within the sacred architecture of Bishop St Methodist Church, Leicester. This collaborative work with Zeropence explores transformation and transcendence through meditative drones, classical Indian singing, and improvised electronica with spoken word and ground-shaking sub-bass frequencies.
The performance responded directly to the venue's soaring architecture and the theme of rising above challenges. Projection mapping brought the church's organ bells to life high above the audience, while pro sound engineering worked with the space's natural acoustics to create an immersive soundscape.
Beginning with binaural beats at 7-13 Hz to promote deep relaxation, "Ascension" guided the audience through a journey from struggle toward elevation, embracing the church's atmosphere of flickering candlelight and incense as the piece literally and figuratively reached toward the heights.

For our next endeavour, we're interested in exploring more participatory elements, transforming each audience member into an active component of the sonic landscape. This approach embraces spatial audio concepts, where the audience becomes instrumental in shaping the collective experience rather than passive observers.
