Voice Work
From Enthused to Obtuse (2024)
Voice art piece activated by an answering machine. Produced for @co.opt research + projects, Texas
Voice by Heather Warren Crow
Piano by Ernesto Busigó
The work is divided in four movements:
1. Intro. Low Jazz variations (restaurant monologue )
2. Frustrated mood (Liszt )
3. Leave a message
4. Hang up (Schumann Op.15 12)
(There are two versions of this piece: one is lo-fi specific to the answering machine, the other will take a different shape for IRL exhibition purposes)
