Opened at The Bike Shed Theatre, Exeter. Christmas 2016.

For a long time, nobody has ventured above ground. An icy wind screams and drifts of snowmen haunt the streets. But down in a secret bolthole, the music beats on… A band of survivors and misfits, chancers and outcasts, dance in the dark.

 

Electronic sound machines

I built two electronic sound machines for use on stage in the production; The portable ‘Snowman Detector’ and a larger machine for alarms and radio interference effects. The machines are based on simple analog oscillator circuits with basic controls for varying pitch and rhythms.
