Big
Mouse is an experimental multimedia collective that has been constructing
atmospheres at gatherings for more than ten years in the Mid Atlantic
area of the United States. Based on sonic journeys of non beat ambience,
Big Mouse creates multisensory environments through the use of sound
and visuals, primarily used as texture, though melodic and rhythmic
interplay are woven in for good measure. Strategic lighting, constructions,
video effects and aroma therapy are used to heighten the mood and messages
of the performances. Shows are designed to provoke within a synesthetic
environment, using multiple artistic disciplines to promote the ambience.
The Ethic of Recycling plays an important part in the group: Ideas old
and new are combined into fresh flavors. Stage pieces are constructed
from gleaned trash. Collected sound and video are morphed into cross
generational themes designed to investigate the common root that binds
us all.The aesthetic of the journey of life is played with and expounded upon.
Expanding on the tradition of "Musique Concrète", Big Mouse is inspired
by the works of Igor Stravinsky, Phillip Glass, the Dada movement, the
experimental electronic music of the 1990's, various tribal and religious
traditions, as well as the sights and sounds of non human nature. Big
Mouse seeks to open eyes, hearts and minds to the wonders of what can
be, using the full palette of tools that we have gathered as humans
over the ages.
Veteran members include Wendell Adkins (333 of Foam Productions) and Nicoletta
Stephanz (The Aromantic Priestess of Coven of One, The Legendary Pink
Dots). Other contributing artists include Six Mariano (Arcane Nocturne), Sean
Regan and Justin Sabe (Giant Robot Solutions Group), as well as many
others who have given time and energy to the project over the years
in various ways, forms and incarnations.
Ever growing, ever changing, Big Mouse is experimental in nature, attempting
to filter the harmonies of life, the heavens and earth into journeys
to expand the mind and engender contemplative moods. Try listening to
Big Mouse when meditating or falling asleep; use to get in touch with
your inner peaceful self.
