Project. 41 Strings
Yeah Yeah Yeahs' guitarist Nick Zinner composed the extraordinary 41 Strings in response to the 41st anniversary of Earth Day.
Daniel was commissioned by the Sydney Festival to create a video work for the performance of 41 Strings at the Sydney Opera House.
The video work spanned the composition's four movements and also IIII, a drum circle led by Hisham Akira Bharoocha (Soft Circle, The Boredoms) which featured in the first half of the program.
The concept involved a line up of 10 moving head projectors that would be mapped across the domed ceiling of the Opera House Concert Hall.
