¿Cuántos Colores Ves En Mis Ojos?

Music piece developed for a VR environment.

​

In early 2020 I began to write my dissertation project. As the events of that year unfolded and conventional concerts were unviable, I decided to rethink the piece for a new context. This is the result.

​

Mixing languages from Contemporary Free Jazz and Contemporary Classical music, this work articulates itself with an intimate look at the way a character builds their identity showing us a link between their inner monologue and the outer world.

​

There were several factors that encouraged me to develop this project. On the one hand, a growing concern about understanding the idea of “identity”;  reality occurs through screens with polyform narratives, how do we build ourselves out from imaginary spaces? As these concerns were developing, I began to think of music as part of “something else”, and I began to prioritize sound over music as well as the ritual over the sound. I began to think of a work of art as a living ritual that shapes us while we shape it.

​

¿Cuántos Colores Ves En Mis Ojos? is a collective effort that was developed in a totally independent way. I can only deeply thank all the people who gave their invaluable support, time, enthusiasm, and dedication.
