Performance and Electric Music Theater
by Paul Koek, Horst Rickels and Martijn Padding
Music and theater share their common origin as a human response to natural phenomena, such as the sounds and movements of animals, thunder, lightning, etc. In this course students are asked to create small music theater scenes, first to be executed on the tabletop and then to perform them on stage and in architectonic spaces.
