Eternal

Presented by D A R K F I E L D   R A D I O

You have been chosen and we tank you for your sacrifice. In return we offer you the opportunity for eternal life - but there are conditions. You could , of course, wait to see what the future might bring. You could your chances on a cure for mortality. The cure is coming - but is it coming fast enough for you.

 

“I want you to believe... to believe in things that you cannot” - Bram Stoker

ETERNAL is a 20-minute immersive audio experience for one person, alone, in the dark, in their bed. It explores the quandary of eternal life and wonders what price you would settle for to achieve it.

Thank you for inviting us into your home. We didn't know where else to go…

A dead couple look for a temporary solution to their permanent condition

VISITORS is a 20 minute immersive audio experience for two people to experience together in their living room in their home. It is a reflection on our irrepressible desire

to touch and why the dead find so little comfort in the world of the living. We require you to remain three metres apart, and while you may yearn to reach across the chasm

that separates you, we ask you be careful who else you invite in

“Death is no more than passing from one room into another.” — Helen Keller

There is only one rule: everyone has to be who they say they are.

Under certain circumstances even the most unshakable and reliable truths can unravel, and untangling all the loose ends and rolling everything back onto the spool

is sometimes too much to bear. So maybe we should exchange our ordinary illusions for other, wilder ones....

As the neuroscientist Anil Seth once said: “Reality is just a hallucination that we can all agree on.”

DOUBLE is the first presentation to be broadcast on DARKFIELD RADIO. It is a troubling exercise in familiarity for two people sitting opposite each other on either side of a kitchen table, replicated in hundreds of rooms all across the world over 20 minutes. DOUBLE explores the Capgras delusion, a terrifying condition in which the sufferer is convinced that a loved one has been replaced by an exact replica with malign intentions

“A vividly unsettling iteration of what the theatrical experience might mutate into during the lockdown era” - David Pollock, The Stage ★★★★
