=About BED= The Various Approaches musicians take to the theme of sleep.
‘THE SLEEPER’ gets into a bed we prepare in a designated space. The musicians and the audience surround THE SLEEPER. We have three rules, ‘Send the SLEEPER to sleep’, ‘Don’t wake them up’,and ‘Don’t stop playing’.
Can we send THE SLEEPER to sleep?
=THE SLEEPER as a system=
This project is based on the way we play music rather than messages through songs or words. THE SLEEPER is perceived as a symbol not an individual. Although the musicians are aware of their music is directed entirely towards THE SLEEPER. For the audience, this system creates a situation where they find themselves in an ambiguous relationship with the performance.
