Shelley Parker - Power Station

'Power Station' by Shelley Parker is the results of a one year residency at SPACE in London. The work was mainly inspired by Dungeness Power Station in Kent. Over the course of the year Parker produced music and staged performance's in response to the Power Station. The soundscape is definitly the direction I want to explore within this project. The all to familiar humming of power surging through the station paints a picture in everybody's mind. Using sounds that are overlooked is the most effective approach to trigger familiarity. This will also cause the audience to react to the work, to understand where they recognize the sound. This is where imagery could play a major role by causing the audience to remember the sound while highlighting what audio we unconsciously hear everyday..
