"when you start to sing yourself in the deep dark forest" 

FacingX. An antimusical on temporality 

While I'm writing this the waltz of the blue danube hunts me, it is crawling into me, completely imbue me, maybe it is in the space between the letters, 

what is the X we're try to facing with? does X open to interpretation or X open interpretation? where the urge to make music, to dance, to move, to talk, to build culture, to surround yourself with noise come from? 

we'd like to have a shared moment with the audience to meditate in these questions and experience the beauty of farewell, the moment when we start to hear our own breath 

facingX celebrates while making fun of music and culture as the most sophisticated remedy against silence and our nothingness. It is a celebration and a farewell, an experience on the beauty of extinction. 

Through the process we are seraching for non-itellectual ways of immersivity, which still grants the spectator the freedom of choice. 

The performance is part of Barabas's university research made in collaboration with an american choreographer, finnish and swedish actors, and a slovakian composer.
