Linda Austin Dance - A Head of Time

sound score

A sound score developed through an extended series of improvisations with the company, across rehearsals and in-progress showings. Linda Austin was asked to keep an audio diary — collecting the sounds of family events, passing conversations, interactions with strangers, ordinary environments. Specific moments in time, accumulated.

These everyday sounds were mixed live for each performance alongside ambient drones, airy hissing, and musical textures. Additional sounds emerged from multiple onstage televisions displaying video documents of the choreographic process.
