Riteways
Every Intentional Act is a Magical Act
‘Rite Ways’ is a live video/music performance of cinepoemes inspired by spiritual rituals. Symbolic objects, such as, the Bagua (Chinese Numerology) rocks (ancestors /American Indian), lingums (Hindu), are manipulated in front of cameras and mixed with shaman rituals, archival footage, and overhead shots of public squares.
At Les Voutes (Paris) Experimental musicians, Thierry Madiot and Elisabeth Valletti improvise electronic samples of harp with the bellowing sounds of air compressed in horns, pipes, conch shells and elongated tubes.
