“In our day and age, we have become so dependant on technology and social media that we have lulled ourself into a false sense of reality.”

“We barely look up now, more concerned with what other people are doing, in another place at another time.”

Our False Reality, is Caleb Colledge’s sonic response to this societal norm created by us.

By manipulating field recordings of the very city we reside in, coupled with tuned, un-tuned and found percussion, Caleb Colledge exemplifies sonically the world we have created for ourselves by our fixation on something happening elsewhere.

He seeks to severe that fixation and bring the audience into the very moment in which time is progressing. By creating a sonic landscape in which the audience can take part in at any time with the use of their smartphone. This interactive atmosphere will help to re-emphasise the beauty of a naturally formed human connection.

A current student of the Queensland Conservatorium of Music, Caleb Colledge is exploring many experimental avenues in percussion and electronics. He has had the recent opportunity to collaborate and improvise with resident artists of Jugglers Art Space as well as students of the Queensland College of Arts.

His new site specific creation for the B.E.A.F, Our False Reality helps us remember what is really important and brings us back into the moment.
