Event overview
Epoché is an 8 channel electroacoustic composition diffused in the Deptford Town hall main stairwell and Council Chamber. The piece is accompanied by dance and features costume design and video installation.
Epoché draws its narrative on the decorative elements of the Deptford Town Hall. The neo-baroque legacy and the contemporary purpose of the building have become the structuring material for composition, costume design and choreography.
The piece is a promenade where the audience is invited to navigate the space and investigate their experience of the aural and visual content they are presented to.
An allegory that questions compositional practices in acousmatic music, listening and performance practices, and how these converge to shape new readings, impressions, and experiences.
A collaboration between Luca Nasciuti and Marie Brenneis

‘The sceptical way of life, then is also called ‘investigative’, from its activity in investigating and enquiring; ‘suspensive’, from the condition that comes about in the enquirer after the investigation; ‘perplexed’, from the fact that it is perplexed about and investigates everything, or else from its being at a loss whether to assent or deny.’
(Sextus Empiricus ‘Outlines of Pyrrhonism’ translated by J. Annas and J. Barnes Cambridge, 2000)
Please note the performance is held in a listed building with no step-free access.
