Artist Statement:
In a Visible Darkness uses sounds which originate from collaborations with Pink Ink Theatre and Ghanaian musician-dancer Modesto Amegago. You are in a concert hall. The lights have been dimmed. It is time to listen for images. In effect, it is time to hear what is normally seen. The acousmatic story-tellers and listeners see the “music” the same way that Homer “saw” a sunrise.
Reaching For Tomorrow was composed in the spring and summer of 1995 at the Simon Fraser University Sonic Studio.
