CRYSTALQUEER // LIZA BEC & CHAINES
A multi-dimensional audiovisual cyborg concert, this cutting-edge electronic work by two composer-performers with first hand experience of life beyond the gender binary was commissioned by the Glasshouse International Centre for Music, and premiered in Hall 2 in November 2023. CRYSTALQUEER’s electronic sounds and visuals are inspired by the evolution of the Gateshead riverside from flat mediaeval salt meadow to modern ten sided concert hall. Filmed by Rob Irish
