Fit into the crowd by Julien-Robert

Piece for bass clarinet, computer and reactive video.
Performed by Krista Martynes, 9 min. 20.

"Finding a musical juxtaposition between trying to create security and finding one’s place, Fit into the crowd is based on a visual image of a character trying to musically find that place while keeping the urban security around them, with a tape part of different phrases commonly said for the sake of security like: I shouldn’t step too far out of place; It’s better to not take risks; Art beware, everything has been done."
