REBIRTH OF A NATION
by DJ Spookyand performed by Kronos Quartet
// Out on 8/28/15!
Conceived as a remix and reimagination of director D.W. Griffith’s infamously racist 1915 silent film The Birth of a Nation, Rebirth of a Nation, recorded with Kronos Quartet, is a controversial and culturally significant project that examines how “…exploitation and political corruption still haunt the world to this day, but in radically different forms.”
Originally commissioned in 2004 by the Lincoln Center Festival, Spoleto Festival USA, Weiner Festwochen, and the Festival d’Automne a Paris, the project was Miller’s first large-scale multimedia performance piece, and has been performed around the world, from the Sydney Festival to the Herod Atticus Amphitheater, more than fifty times.
World Premiere Performance: The Hidden Code
Charles Hayden PlanetariumBoston MA
Thursday September 24th
// More Info
Imagine a visual odyssey through the cosmos, driven by lush musical compositions and inspired by complex themes of astronomy, engineering, biology, and psychology. Join us for the world premiere of the newest work by Paul D. Miller, aka DJ Spooky. Commissioned by Dartmouth College's Neukom Institute for Computational Science, Miller composed The Hidden Code based on conversations with several of Dartmouth's leading researchers.
This premiere performance features live appearances by Miller as well as Dartmouth theoretical physicist and saxophonist Stephon Alexander; Dartmouth physicist and author Marcelo Gleiser who will read his original poetry; and stunning original visuals created by the Charles Hayden Planetarium staff.
Savor this synthesis of emerging science, poetry, and melody with immersive visions overhead as The Hidden Code pushes art into science. Science into music. Music into art.
Tickets on sale beginning Thursday, September 3 (Tuesday, September 1 for Museum members).
Listen to The Hidden Code online for free starting September 3: http://thehiddencode.dartmouth.edu
The Hidden Code music was commissioned by the Dartmouth College Neukom Institute for Computational Science through its Director, Professor Dan Rockmore.
