‘A’ S.A.D. crap (a post-modern classic)
by E<->CB (Elaine Carmen Bonsangue & Carlo Barbagallo)
is an open project, consisting in a three part electroacoustic and interactive interactive music-theatre opera for a “performer” (’A’) and a “prepared suitcase” (S.A.D. = inStrument Artefact Device) freely inspired by Krapp’s Last Tape by Samuel Beckett.

On September 21, 2019 we premiered the first part of the opera (Tracks 1-6) for Musica in Prossimità Festival (Pinerolo, Torino), with Stanislas Pili as our ghost of crap, in order to display and finance the next parts (yet to be properly produced) with performers Luca ‘Swanz’ Andriolo and Elaine respectively.

"∞ Version" (www.youtube.com/watch?v=VAxqJT7LtMU) is an audiovisual, ongoing, always in-progress, revisable a/v appendix to the entire work of art. All three ghosts of crap are in it. It was premiered on October 12, 2020 after a previous week residency at Teatro del Lavoro (Pinerolo, Torino) for Spazio1984 (www.spazio1984.com).

The overrall project aim is to experiment in several directions the interactions between Beckett’s text, theatrical performance (gesture and voice), electroacoustic composition, object/instrument building, interactive programming (sound, light and video control) and graphic score writing. The ground of all these interactions is the ‘prepared suitcase’, an artifact that is consider the piece of art itself. It contains the electroacoustic devices, some decontextualized and customized ’sounding’ objects, the computer, the score and more; modules acting as an interactive network with the performer as part of it. As in ‘Krapp’s Last Tape’ the technological electroacoustic media became autonomous and visible, the “prepared suitcase’ S.A.D is prop, character and actor of the piece, alongside the performer. And as the performer will activate S.A.D., it will activate the site-specific performance. So, the suitcase will be consider as an extension of the performer and viceversa.
