The graceful movements of jellyfish and a woman.
A series of live VJ performances with musicians Dok Gregory, Zemi17, Peter Principle. Featuring Gina Abatemarco as Jellyfish Siren.
This is the 1st performance of this piece, one of two channels, perfomed at Forward Motin Theater’s EyeWash series. We worked with this piece throughout 2008 in different settings. Please get in touch if you would like to view the full versions.
Using cut-out bin vinyl samples and urban nature video, Lady Firefly (Zarah Cabañas) and Paul Amitai take the familiar and transform it into something unexpected and sublime. With the typical tools of live VJ/DJ performance (laptop, turntables, CDJs, effects), the duo finds a way to spin unconventional experimental narratives out of inspired collective improvisation. Lady Firefly’s lush, painterly visuals work in perfect harmony with the dub-inspired soundscapes of Paul Amitai, as their live set often shifts through a variety of moods – from sparse, sun-dappled textures to thick sheets of distortion and deep, watery rhythmic pulses.
Lulacruza is a beautiful experience. Ale and Luis team up with Firefly Lab to create ethereal textures and moods carved from indigenous sounds and silence.
