Western Front is pleased to present a new audio-visual play, V FOR VIRTUAL, by artist-in-residence Debby Friday. The work is the final instalment of her sci-fi sonic theatre trilogy that began with her graduate thesis project, LINK SICK, followed by the immersive installation, VOW, and was produced while in residence at Western Front.
In this cumulative project, the future world of VIRTUAL finds itself under siege of corrupted code, warring factions, and rolling whiteouts from ABC Inc. And still, the rave rages on. The project incorporates a fusion of new media approaches to visual and sound art, including multi-channel audio, experimental music production, generative art, chroma keying, algorithmic composition, and references to mixed reality.
V FOR VIRTUAL runs for 30 minutes every hour on the hour. Proof of vaccination is required for attendance.
