Feel Me

The Paper Birds

Sound and Music Designer

“Feel Me asks, via your mobile phone, who and what you care about from the stories unfolding live on stage in front of you.”

“A stunning mixture of live performance, film, projection, dance and music, Feel Me will explore the different lenses through which we are told, and connect to stories in the modern digital world.”

Telling a story of forced displacement, Feel Me changes format and setting rapidly throughout, so the sound design for the show is important in quickly communicating context for action on stage, moving you through both literal and abstract spaces.

Compositionally, the music of Feel Me is also varied, but primarily takes influence from contemporary electronic music, and plays on the tropes of the forms of media explored. The music of the show interweaves with the sound design throughout. The varied nature of the music and sound of the show mirrors the saturation of today’s media, and the array of ways in which we consume information.

Feel Me is broken up by a number of interactive sections in which audiences can respond to questions via their phones. The sound of these sections differs from the rest of the show in that they maintain a calmness and consistency. Since audiences are interacting directly with the show, and not watching it through the various lenses of media explored, they act as transitional spaces that quiet the buzz.

I am now touring with Feel Me as the Technical Manager.
