WITH LOVE, FROM YOUR GHOST'S GHOSTS
You know how sometimes you’re lying in bed and suddenly you’re haunted by the phantoms of every single mistake you’ve ever made?
with love, from your ghost's ghosts is a multimedia work featuring flute, bassoon, and piano alongside recorder samples, electronics, visuals, and AI-generated text.
Inspired by a sleepless night fending off the incessant voices in my head, with love... utilises multimedia performances from manifestations of your sleep paralysis demons to explore individual and collective fear, guilt, existential crisis, and recovery, combining absurdist humour with emotive sincerity, AI generation with the humanness of performativity...
But hey, tomorrow’s another day, right? So while you’re here, we might as well enjoy ourselves…
