AURUM (sound)

2023

Act ii + Act iii

Composer and performer

Kinetech Arts’s AURUM (gold in Latin) portrays a modern-day “gold rush” in San Francisco, with the world’s tech capital viewed through the events of 1849. Humanity is in a disruptive transition era analogous to that time of proliferation, as developments in AI are growing exponentially. By reflecting on the gold rush, when greed fueled ecological and human tolls, this project reflects on our place within a delicate ecosystem. This ecosystem includes the intimate relationships between humans and the digital world.

Performed at ODC October 13, 14, + 15, 2023  

Composition for Jack London Square + Trolly Dances, San Francisco, 2023
