Embrace & Breathe was inspired from the chest of a beloved person, with its bronchi and its three-colored spiral-galaxies. Each color matches to one of the three percussion players. Motion graphics was made by Carlos Cueto, with Pepe Gimeno’s advice.
Performance by trio Neopercusión at the Auditorio 400 of the National Contemporary Art Museum Reina Sofía (Madrid), on January 27th 2024.
Some details from the score in paper, that works as a training support but is not meant to be read onstage while the video is running.
The premiere took place in the context of the ‘Taller de compositoras de Cádiz’, in the Festival de Música Española, along with pieces by other women composers that dealt with artificial intelligence. This work was intended to recall the human, the love, the growth that arises from the interdependence between living beings. In contrast to the dependence on machines that artificial intelligence achieves.
