Agents of Paradise
For Leap Motion Sensor and Fixed Media
Program Note:
Whenever the idea of non-human intelligence, such as AIs or extraterrestrial lifeforms, is brought to the forefront of discussion, we often have two possible outcomes in mind; paradise or demolition. Either we work in harmony with these new species or they overpower humanity. Personally, I would leave this fate up to a coin toss.
My piece Agents of Paradise explores these possibilities through a dramatic and exciting pulse, followed by a section of stasis, yet containing the feeling of disturbance. Do you welcome our new overlords with open arms?
