HARMONIC DESTRUCTION

An audiovisual performance in which the authors deal with the creation of harmony and its subsequent destruction. Vibration and shadow-play are the main components of the whole project that uses the synchronization of objects, movement, light and sound. It is an experiment that seeks harmony leading to the destruction of itself. The question remains as to whether it will ultimately arrive at harmonic destruction or destructive harmony.
