  Upsala-Circus

  Apr 2022 - now

  Sound engineer in three theatre performances. In my work, I use the Midas M32.The first performance, - “Dreams of Pirosmani”. In this performance, beautiful paintings of Niko Pirosmani come alive on stage. Sound preparation consists of two stages. The first stage includes the preparation of microphones for instruments and textures. The second stage is live, which includes creating a sound space for the action of the performance - playing music and foley prerecorded samples, recording sound live and playing it (through Ableton), in parallel, turning on the microphones for the musician in each action for him playing instruments and controlling the effects of the microphones. The second performance, - "45 minutes". This performance tells about being in the school environment and asks each one in the audience if there is any space for fun and air in the classroom during your studies. In this performance, the processes of working with sound are identical to the first performance, with the exception of one cool thing. During rehearsal, there is a chance to work with ones who read poems on stage with a microphone. The third performance is called "Dream Gourd". Most of my work is providing music for artists on stage. Show less

  A small camp session with kids of different ages (6 - 14 years old). In camp, we participated in various creative activities and studied the area around us. My part was related to sound.

After that, we created a sound space for a theatrical performance based on a children's fairy tale.
