From Ark to Microchip
The provocative "From Ark to Microchip" mixes commentary, dramatic re-enactment, original music, historic voices, audio art and sound effects in a pan-historical, pan-cultural milieu. Programs in the program series have received several awards.
“A joyous celebration of the pagan roots of man, reinterpreted through the prism of modern technology…linking the folklore of Scrat Rat (an old German hobgoblin figure) to the work of the 18th century inventor Volta, via the traditional Maypole dance; en route, making observations about the human ‘electricity’ that is generated by human energy (particularly sexual energy).”
—Ed Pinsent, The Sound Projector (England).
Features Betse Ellis (violin) and Hafiza Capehart (flute and dog whistle).
