Ficções Sônicas
2020 · 19 min · Documentary
Ficções Sônicas is a sonic imagination of the radio play Pra Dar Um Fim no Juízo de Deus, by Antonin Artaud, immersed in the notion of non-place of diasporic experiences. Triggered by the term developed by the writer Kodwo Eshun, the work brings together the musicians Barulhista, Maurício Badé and Thelmo Cristovam in different musical tracks, dialoguing with the voice of Passô. “It is to make the future vibrate in this ancient text that always had the future in itself. It is an evocation of words resistant to the automation of sensibility. It’s a meeting between aliens.”
Directed by Grace Passô
