The performance “Assum Livre” integrates a sequence of artefacts fisrtly presented for the PhD Thesis “Backyard of Sounds: A path to sound immersion”. It was recently recreated in a cyberspace event, thus its transcription to cyberperformance. It consists of an artistic proposal that seeks to reflect on freedom/imprisonment, evoking a metaphor that recreates the experience of the lockdown periods in 2020/2021. The performance is based on the streaming of a video recorded with the author/singer performing part of the song “Assum Preto” (Teixeira and Gonzaga, 1950), simultaneously with the live performance of the other stanzas of the song. These alternate with the presentation of the lyrics, and the materialization of the performer. As backdrop we have a natural scenery as a projection of “freedom”, depicting the natural habitat threatened by human intervention, enhanced by the natural soundscapes and integrating the hybridization of image / sound / live performance. The main concepts, the description of the artefact, and the developments made are discussed. This work was supported by the Portuguese Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT) in the framework of the CyPet Project- EXPL/ART-PER/0788/2021-"Development of a new pedagogical model for teaching cyberperformance in higher education"- An initiative of the Center for Research in Arts and Communication (CIAC) - University of Algarve in partnership with the Open University of Portugal and the University of Maia. info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion |
