📖 An immersive experience in darkness

In “Criaturas Sónicas”, the audience is blindfolded and surrounded by a multichannel sound system. Crafted from environmental recordings collected worldwide—both natural and artificial—the performance moves beyond conventional soundscapes into abstract virtual sound worlds where audio functions as physical space and dynamic force.

The setup deliberately excludes visual input in a strictly monomedia setting, offering each listener room for deep, personal exploration and heightened listening.
