The Marriage of Heaven and Hell is a trans-disciplinary work based on the novel of the same name by William Blake that combines dance, electroacoustic composition, interactive technology and cognitive science in a scenic format.
The central core of Blake is the restoration of the union of apparently irreconcilable opposite pairs, because, as the poet said “without opposites there is no progress”. On the one hand, there is the virtuous clarity of techno-scientific rational thinking (heaven, logos) and on the other, the perverse and overwhelming creative forces of imagination and instinct, which emerge from body energy (hell, mythos).
