2026
When you google « apple » the first thing that comes up is the famous company and their technology, not an actual apple (the fruit) from mother nature. This performance explores the question if technology has become more relevant to the human experience than nutrition.
MUSIC
Sound as an extension of the NKEM universe. Experiments in voice, rhythm and emotion moving between vulnerability, confrontation and release.
