ut coelum

This was a work that was formed from a recording of an a cappella choir of 14 women singing UT COELUM, a composition based on a text by Lipsius and composed by Ethan Nasreddin-Longo. The recording of the choir singing was reconstructed through editing. Fragments of video and sound were layered and repeated and set in fields of color that constantly shift and change. Through the off-phase layering, the sound became a "sonic well". Choir: Local Color, Directed by Anna Ancheta
