Synopsis

Snow-capped mountains march toward the floating ocean, forging a path of their own making, while vast green fields shift aside. They long to finally bathe in those glistening waters, where they once spent their youth. Soon, they pass a lonely hill, unmoved by the world’s changes. There on the hill sits The Daydreamer who thirsts for all the colours of the world.

 

In this performance, Bennett explores various sonic worlds using live looping, along with acoustic and electric guitar, piano and a range of software instruments.
