Program Note

The present research start from my prior pieces for feedbacked instruments [Vilanos, 2014 and Bulle, 2017] ,microsound [microbeatlogic, 2013-2021] membrane-like-addons [Kokon, 2018], and complex circuited amplified ensemble [Overture-El universo en un hilo, 2017]. All the pieces are on the presented dossier [video section].
Panspermia hypotheses propose (for example) that microscopic life-forms that can survive the effects of space (such as extremophiles) can become trapped in debris ejected into space after collisions between planets and small Solar System bodies that harbor life.
Similarly, using the panspermic procedure as a metaphor, the work unfolds a device where the instrument and the performatic body form a gestural continuum. Panspermic is a musical theatre research work, so its composition is based on a complex construction between light, gesture, scenic space and sound.
