But still attached to Life at all four Corners

Beschreibung
"I made the paper sculpture myself, by wrapping a mannikin puppet with molded layers of simple wrapping-paper. The singer stands behind the sculpture and uses it as a versatile percussion instrument, to be treated with precisely timed movements notated in the score. The title is inspired by a line from the text by Virginia Woolf. The live electronic setup is partially controlled by feathers moved over light sensors."
Pia Palme (2013)
