Rays & Correlations [a live to broadcast performance]

Scrutton, N. and Strachan, Z. (2019) Rays & Correlations [a live to broadcast performance]. [Performance]

Abstract

Inspired by the patterns of cosmic ray interactions in a cloud chamber, Scrutton and Strachan imagine the myriad signals and attempts at communication that might enter a sphere and intersect, cluster, miss or fade away. Rays & Correlations is a voice-focused improvised performance with layers of interactive soundscape. The listener is invited to find a thread to hold onto amid interweaving sparse and dense streams of words and evocations – and to decide whether the sound space is literal, as inside a kind of radome, or metaphorical – representing any individual consciousness trying to make sense of human connection.
