THE SMELL OF BLUE ELECTRICITY (2021)

The Smell of Blue Electricity is a 50-minute piece for percussion quartet, electronics and lights. The project aims to create a performance that breaks the habits of the usual performance in the perspective of creating a closer contact with the audience. 
The structure of the work is divided into different scenes based on fragmentation, thoughts on technology, and connection with the unconscious.
