Enter a dark and disconcerting world with 'Digital Echo'. In this 13-minute audiovisual experience in black and white, the boundary between reality and virtuality disintegrates, giving rise to an intensely unsettling cyber performance.
Using the computer's webcam and an interaction between the effects generated in the moment, this cyber performance unfolds to the sound of an old song, in which the performer followed the music and the effects to create an audiovisual whole. The dissonant notes, the weird beat and the disconnected arrangements in highs and lows combine to create a weird soundscape, plunging the spectator into a state of unease.
Through glitch effects and visual distortions, the video evokes a ghostly aesthetic, as if reality itself were fading away. The image of someone confined in a virtual room, unable to escape, creates an atmosphere of claustrophobia and despair. The protagonist becomes a spectre that exists only in the confines of the internet, a digital entity that echoes the loneliness and fear that inhabit this virtual space.
'Digital Echo' is more than just a performance; it is a harrowing immersion into a world where the line between the real and the imaginary is distorted, where anxiety manifests itself in the form of sound and image. In an emotionally charged journey, where terror and agony intertwine, the viewer is led to question what is genuine in a digital landscape saturated with uncertainty."

A theatrical and performative experiment based on experiences of non-belonging and search for ancestral cultures that have been denied to us by the erasure of colonization.
The video's visual narrative unfolds in a mesmerizing mix of images, immersing viewers in a world that blurs the boundaries between reality and abstraction. The evocative soundtrack, which blends pulsating beats and haunting guitar riffs, reflects the tumultuous emotional landscape of those who are often ignored or marginalized by conventional norms.
'Non-Place' invites its audience to confront the idea of a 'non-place' - those spaces and states of existence that defy categorization, transcending the ordinary and the known. Through a series of striking visuals and thought-provoking sequences, the production reveals the hidden stories of individuals struggling with their own inner turmoil and social disconnection.
With each frame, 'Non-Place' challenges preconceptions and stimulates introspection, encouraging viewers to reflect on the human condition and the profound insights that can arise from the spaces between acceptance and rejection. The convergence of experimental audio and evocative visuals creates an immersive experience that resonates long after the screen goes black, leaving a lingering sense of the strange and the extraordinary.

Enter the enigmatic realm of "Dark Eclipse", a cryptic Jazz Fusion / Dark Noir experiment that began as a live improvisation with drums, guitar and saxophone, and then guitar and bass were added to add to the sonic tension....
This musical journey draws you into a world of mystery and intrigue, as haunting melodies and soul-stirring rhythms guide you through uncharted territories.
The evocative soundscape begins with a digital piano adorned with the ethereal tones of an organ effect. The sad wails of the saxophone penetrate the darkness, intertwining with the rhythmic beat of the drums. The foundation takes shape as the guitar and bass join the ensemble, their notes filling the spaces between the shadows, adding depth and complexity to the experience.
This mesmerizing improvisation is one of the shortest yet most intense performances the group has ever created. Before the live session, they prepared their minds and souls by collectively imagining a dark atmosphere, as if they were entering an unexplored and mysterious place.
The result is an emotionally charged and liberating musical expression, free of restrictions, allowing each musician's instincts to blend harmoniously.
"Dark Eclipse" resonates with a sense of anticipation and curiosity, embracing the darkness and delving into the unexplored recesses of the mind. The seamless fusion of Jazz/Rock and Dark Noir elements creates an unforgettable sonic landscape, inviting listeners to lose themselves in the captivating interplay between the instruments.
