“A short-distance Utopia, a baby Utopia, a little one that can grow.”

Welcome to the future. sleep future sleep is a short operatic work inspired by 19th-century and 20th-century feminist sci-fi novels. An immersive binaural experience, each audience member is the protagonist, who falls asleep to find themselves propelled to a future not far from now, the year 2051. sleep future sleep is a three-part experience, combining the essence of meditative sleep and dreams with a site-specific audio walk using the geolocation app, Echoes XYZ. The piece accompanies each audience member as they journey from bedroom to specially designated locations: a journey unique to each person, wherever they are.
