Sinking of the Titanic
composer: Gavin Bryars
visual artist: Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster
orchestra: Wordless Music Orchestra
role: sound designer / performer
I designed sounds and performed electronic parts for a live performance of Gavin Bryars’ “Sinking of the Titanic” in the rotunda at the Guggenheim in New York City with the Wordless Music Orchestra. Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster choreographed theatrical lighting and the flow of the audience through the museum during the performance. As the performance evolved, the audience slowly ‘sunk’ to the bottom of the abyss.
