As part of the audio and video class Ane-Michelle Gallero and myself developed a piece inspired on Octavia Butler’s short story “Bloodchild.”

Through the piece we try to bring the story line of "bloodchild" into an everyday scenario. For this we realized street recordings and indoor recordings that function as the backdrop of where the story we want to tell is taking place. This backdrop was audibly decorated with sound effects recorded specially for this piece as well as royalty free music tracks that added the desired deepness to the piece

This is a piece to be listened lying in a couch, blindfolded and with headphones on. Click on the image once you are ready.
