Contributing sound design to inkBoat's dance-theater production, presented by the San Francisco International Arts Festival. From SFIAF: ""Clouds from a Crumbling Giant" revolves in the cylces governing a day, year, a lifetime. The human being returns to source. Begin again. The project combines the Daoist sage Lieh-Tzu’s observations on a “Guide to Practical Living” with theatrical performance-devising traditions rooted in the Japanese avant-garde. We are currently in phase 2 of the work (premiere in 2024/25). With Wudang West as our source, the performers practice Pai Da (a therapeutic body patting) as both health practice and performative material. Our interactions with communities of elders (through discussions, lectures and brief clinics) informs our perspectives and generates direct information for what appears on stage. Bringing in an eclectic mix of cultural and musicial references, expect song, body percussion and the rise and fall of all that exists. – distilled into a 60-minute dance-theater performance."
