BWW Review: THE ENCOUNTER - An Innovative Means of Tripping Down a Photographer's Rabbit Hole
The West Coast premiere of Complicite's THE ENCOUNTER amazes with its cutting-edge technology of 3-D audio. Co-creator/performer Simon McBurney commands the Wallis stage as he recalls National Geographic photographer Loren McIntyre's 1969 photographic expedition into the depths of the Amazon rainforest. The inventive use of Sennheiser headphones astonishingly brings all the various sound effects and voices into your ears.
