Our days are busy, our days are demanding. As our to-do lists grow longer and longer, our patience and attention span grow shorter and shorter. Who hasn’t tried one of these smart apps that promise relaxation, ease, and clarity of mind in an instant? We listen to the soothing voice, we close our eyes, we breathe. We let ourselves be guided to imaginative places; we let our thoughts be rearranged. We spend time with a faceless voice during our most vulnerable and intimate moments. And we trust it. Unfortunately, self-optimization is a never-ending race, and all too often we find ourselves back in the same uncomfortable places we’ve been many times before. Sounds like a good fit for someone’s business model?
A singer named Alice also tries to escape the pressure of her work, turning to a mysterious app called “The Meadow.” She finds herself lying in the green grass, watching the fluffy clouds drift by, when suddenly new doors open, and her journey turns into a feverish dream. “The Meadow” is a multimedia composition for a singer, cello, percussion, electronics, lights, video,
, and stage that explores the eerie qualities of self-help tools we integrate into our everyday lives.
