Thinking about SOUND

  • How can sound show the passing of time to help us tell the story of how suzanne actually spent nearly 40 years studying Henry?
  • Shall we have  a recording of the soundtrack to the operation that scoville performed. it can start maybe realistic, with conversations on top, then get a little more expressionistic.
  • Shall we record a lot of the dialogue so that it can dress the movement sequences? Editing it with loops etc might also help convey loss of short term memory. Or Henry's continual confusion about the present moment.
  • What music for the silks? If Tom and Carmen start on the silks, what music? opera, classical? What can fade into carmen's over the rainbow?
  • Do we have live music? Where, how, why?
  • What if most of what characters from the past say is pre-recorded? And those from the present is not? or the other way round?
  • If we had mp3 players, what would we want the audience to listen to privately? And why?
  • I would like us to use some of the music from the Papaioannou clips

  1. I like the idea of pre-recording dialogue for the past characters. maybe it could be found-archive-diaries they have recorded or something which Jaccopo plays in his lecture :)

    plus since I have included physical movement for Korbinian's Scene, I think it would look more interesting with pre-recorded dialogue.
    to begin with anyway which would be a good way to blend the past characters with the present.
