On The New Revelations of Being / 2018
On The New Revelations of Being is a multimedia work based on Antonin Artaud’s apocalyptic manifesto of 1937. It envisions the end of the world and the death of God through a series of cataclysmic occurrences of typically Artaudian cruelty. The piece was originally performed as a part of Artaud & Sound: To Have Done with the Judgment of God at the Visconti Studio in London on 15th September 2018. This was the final in a series of events marking the 70th anniversary of Artaud’s death. Released by Infinity Land Press, this CD/DVD set contains the full audio recording, the backdrop film and the full libretto from the performance.
