Piece Name: bodyscan This musical segment for Agora explores the concept of body scanning. A body scan meditation brings attention to the different areas of the body, from the crown of the head to the soles of the feet. The words in this piece attempt to map the memory of a person within different spaces of the body, evoking the emotive quality of each of the senses. The music borrows from the slow, meditative sound of spiritual practice, but juxtaposes it with an irregular and disruptive kick and snare patterns to coincide with the unrest of the vocals. The video distorts and fragments short vignettes that fracture before the eyes can source their meaning.
