Find Me

FIND ME is a multi speaker sound installation and performance-without-performers that explores the phenomena of getting lost and finding one’s way. A mesmeric, immersive environment created by composer/performer Christina Campanella and writer/sound designer Jim Dawson, FIND ME is composed of sonic ephemera in which field recordings, music and industrial drones swell into electro-symphonic motifs. The audience moves through and around invisible walls of sound deployed via a 12:1 multitiered system of speakers that emanates sound from all sides and above. FIND ME uses the potential of sound spatialization to manipulate the internal mapping sense that shapes our perception of where we are.

Christina Campanella is a composer, vocalist and sound artist who creates music and sound-based works across disciplines. Her pieces for theater, film, installation and playback blend songwriting and composition with aural design, weaving found sounds, ambient textures, and a dreamy avant-rock sensibility into cinematic soundscapes and deconstructed art songs.

He is a long time collaborator of The Wooster Group, Trisha Brown Dance Company, Cynthia Hopkins, Jim Findlay, and Findlay/Sandsmark, earning a Drama Desk Award, Drama Desk nomination, and Chicago’s Jeff Award for sound design. His work in live performance has taken him across the US, Europe, Asia and South America.
