Description

Cosmic Time is a new work for percussion and electronics created by visual artist Michaela Gleave, experimental instrumental and electronic composer Amanda Cole and contemporary percussionist Louise Devenish.

Originally, the work was developed for live performance with four percussionists, each representing a different ‘spirit’ of the universe, with costumes designed not only for their appearance but also for their sonic qualities, rustling and swirling as the percussionists moved around the stage. The visual aspect is obviously missing from this studio version, but the creators were keen to emphasise the collaborative inputs of all three artists on both the audio and visual aspects of the project.
