Recently, I found a lot of free time during which I built a modular synthesizer system based on the composer and electronic-instrument builder Serge Tcherepnin.
In the show I will use a modular synthesizer, in addition to a marching drum prepared with electronics and a small membrane, and trace the feelings awakened in me by the notion of exile.
“A solitary man on an island long and narrow as a line
another hallucinates on an island for not walking the line of
the Zeitgeist
solitary
hallucinating man
but there are
birds”
Between 1947–1961, the island of Makronisos, located off the Attica coast, served as an internal exile prison for political opponents of the Greek monarchy.
