Walking Simulator
A short musical theater play set in dystopian Eastern Europe, based on a biblical story. The player navigates through digital musical theater play scenes. This project joins experimental pop, psychedelic and techno sounds with virtual theater and space installations as it follows the 1920s Yugoslav zenitist drama text "Eastern Sin".In consists of 4 songs: (1st) Adam laments over the loneliness of existence,(2nd) Eve's ode to sensuality (referencing iconic Balkan pop-lyrics),(3rd) Abrahamic God warns of their doom (this part is left in the original 1920s drama shape),(4th) Adam and Eve leaving the Garden of Eden (adapted by writers Suzana Džuver and Una Kapetan).This work juxtaposes various influences that created the contemporary global monoculture, from the 19th century onwards. Its elements are supposed to provide the wider context of the planet Earth in its variety. The music is supposed to be the ultimate symbol of vitality – a high energy, Eros-fueled, powerful display of the joy of life – a blend of alternative and mainstream music: electronic sounds, pop melodies and Middle Eastern/Balkan elements.
