A 30-minute hunt for a secret passage out of the Internet enchantments that bind us melding sound, image, and performance technologies old and new. Seats limited - get tickets here ($10-? pay what you wish).

Down into the Digital Otherworld journeys virtuosic Orpheus in search of his lost Eurydice, enchanted away by the mischievous Faery King…like a body and its soul rent in two - one party frozen outside of time in a world of illusion, the other desperate to return things to how they once were. But how to become whole again? 

Inspired by medieval retellings of the Orpheus myth and our collective internet-driven madness, Sunset weaves technologies old and new - mask performance, live video mixing, AI chatbots, electronic music, lamentations, spirit talking, automata, Victorian illusion and more - into a music-driven terrifyingly embodied work that mythologizes our relationship with technology, and how it has changed and shaped our imagination. Join The Hinterlands and video artist Renee Willoughby in the Otherworld of ones and zeroes as we wrestle our souls back from the trickster in the black box and break the spell that traps us in the algorithm.  This performance/installation runs approximately 30 minutes.
