The Hercules and Leo Case
CloseThe Hercules and Leo Case create sound arrangements on the basis of voices and language. Through voice The Hercules and Leo Case explore the range between multi-species uttering, noises, tones, and speech and plot them with the help of custom instrument-objects into a mesmerizing tonal narrative.
Named after a New York court case which attempted to give two captive chimps, Hercules and Leo, fundamental rights, the notion of "having a voice” and the political implications thereof are recurring themes in The Hercules and Leo Case’s performances.
