Friday 23rd September
A New Topography of Love Dumbworld’s animated video-game opera experience premiered at Regional Cultural Centre, Letterkenny on Friday 23rd Sept.
It was a thrill to see the reaction of everyone playing!
It tells the tale of the earth-ravaged by waste and excess and almost too late to save-but the animals that remain become our teachers, reminding us of the essence of living and that there is nothing more important than our voice. The piece plays out across three interactive levels, all with one goal in common – to spread the love.
We can’t wait to tour this project further afield.
