CONSUME
At its most basic level CONSUME is a theatrical presentation of 5 pieces of music created by composers working under the influence of computers. It also exists as a workshop for meditation on (among other things) the role of technology in our lives, the heredity of compositional ideas, musical and theatrical experimentation, visual and sonic suggestion, and the audience as a consumer.
CONSUME features performances by
Rachel Beetz, flute
Clint Davis, keyboard
Ariana Lamon-Anderson, clarinet
Katalin Lukács, piano
Batya MacAdam-Somer, violin
Ashley Walters, cello
with
Nicholas Deyoe, conductor
and
Clint McCallum, actor
David Medine, live electronic sound
Jason Ponce, live video
Krista Knight, dramaturgy
and compositions by
Trevor Bača
Tristan Murail

CONSUME is made possible by generous support from the Center for Research in Computing and the Arts (CRCA), the UCSD department of music, and local non-profit organization Wavelink.
