Above: During lockdowns in 2020, SlowPitch created a masterful performance dedicated to Trees. The performance was designed, filmed and directed by SlowPitchSound himself in his living room. Fun fact: A species of fig tree known as the Banyan can only be pollinated by a unique species of very tiny wasps. The entire process is pretty incredible and almost unbelievable.
Above: live improvisation excerpt. This point of view is what the audience will see projected on screen for an intimate live action view of SlowPitchSound's process. In this video SlowPitchSound manipulates a Vallue Village found record, loops segments live and adjusts levels on the fly. A master of his craft, dancing with his instruments.
Excerpt from SlowPitchSound's audio visual adventure "Alternate Forest". There is always an element of surprise with every performance.
