Cloudcatcher Media have launched a new performance concept in artivism.
Confusing Them With Our Joy will be a live, two hour musical multimedia show about the Northern Rivers' historic victory against invasive gasfields and what it means for our future. It will premiere in 2021.
The experience will unfold across three big screens (a spectacular triple HD total image, twice as wide as Cinemascope), separated by two musicians, using a combination of documentary and new imagery. The musical spine will be provided by the much-loved bard of the movement, Luke Vassella. This show will be immersive and interactive, the closest thing to being back there on the frontline.
Confusing Them With Our Joy will honour the artists of all kinds who were such a big part of the movement's success, including many unseen gems, moments of pathos, comedy, animation and a big dose of the disruptive joyful confusion that the Northern Rivers of NSW has been famous for since Aquarius.
Not just a film, this will be a touring multimedia show about a community which refused to become a gasfield. Confusing Them With Our Joy asks – what did we learn that could help other communities staring down the fossil fuel and climate change threat? Can we fight the global struggles we face with humanity, art and joy?
Along with tickets to the live shows in 2021, we are pre-selling double CDs, a movie version of the performance and a number of other great rewards. The show is designed to be scaleable. It can play anywhere from community halls to large outdoor spaces.
Confusing Them With Our Joy will be produced by the award-winning team of David Lowe, Luke Vassella and Eve Jeffery, of Cloudcatcher Media, and directed by David Lowe, who has been shooting this epic story since 2012. The production team are all available for interviews.
