Honorary collaboration of artists with projects is not right / “Gil Gomash” postmodern
Payam Larian, a writer and theater director, pointed to the unfavorable financial situation these days and reminded that artists have the right not to cooperate with various projects on an honorary basis.
Theater News Base: Payam Larian, Director of the Disciplinary Theater of the House of Iranian Artists and sound and music designer of the audio project “Gil گمش“With the start of the corona and the closure of cultural and artistic activities, we thought of ideas that could continue the process of cultural and artistic activities in this situation,” said the recently released broadcaster about the idea and design of the podcast. I had several ideas, one of which was to produce a podcast. Years ago mix And Mastering I did and specially designed sound and music for my own plays. That’s why I decided to produce a podcast that was originally supposed to be published only on the Artists’ House channel. At the same time Siavash پاکراه He performed a play that was to be staged 2 days a week at the Disciplinary Theater with a limited audience. When I offered to produce the podcast, he said that he was also researching Greek mythology. I also wrote the collection “Greek Myths” many years before the book لنسلین green I had read it and I was eager to do it.
He added: “First, a perspective on the future of this Activity We did not have. Siavash recorded the sounds with his mobile phone and sent them to me and I to them edit And I cleaned up and finally the music was selected and so on. Asieh Mazinani, the cultural and artistic deputy of the Iranian Artists’ House, confirmed the work after hearing the first part and decided to bring the executive team together. From Morteza آکوچکیان Graphic designer and Leila Naqli wanted to add to the project and produce the program in the form of IGtv and publish the podcast in the cast box. This program lasted 80 episodes and twice a week for about a year. In the end, the demand for such a program was high, and the audience asked us to turn to myths other than Greece, and so, after three months, we decided to produce the poem “Gilgamesh” with the same team.
لاریان About to continue دار Explaining the existence of this project, we decided to continue these productions, but there are many problems, the most important of which is the limited financial resources. In the previous two series, we had a production without any financial expectations, which aims to have a better time living at home in coronavirus But now that the activities of each member of the group have begun, this the period To continue or not is unpredictable.
He continued: When the “Greek Myths” project ended, to Siavash پاکراه I insisted that we start “Gilgamesh” and I had done some research on it myself, but Siavash’s work was more comprehensive. I, Siavash پاکراه And Asieh Mazinani, we also had an idea to deal with Iranian mythology and provided resources for its research, but in the conditions of the resurgence of the physical activities of the House of Iranian Artists, I hope there will be another opportunity to continue this project. It is very important for artists to study the myths of different nations and to know about them, and of course, producing a podcast in this regard will make the work easier for this awareness.
Larian in response to the question of whether in designing sound and choosing music, he believed in conventional atmospheres or from a different atmosphere and Abstract “At the beginning, I thought I should use classical music,” he explained Archaic I used it and in the first parts of the podcast I came up with this idea, but then I saw that out-of-the-ordinary music finds an interesting accompaniment to the content. We also got good reactions to them after the release and we saw that it is possible not to stand on a certain type of music. In addition, the use of effects helped a lot in designing the sound space. Sounds by Siavash پاکراه It was taken with a mobile phone and هام There was an environment and clearing the sound was a big part of the job, but given the mythical narrative, in the end, I don’t think this kind of postmodernist approach turned out to be a bad thing.
This writer and theater director about production Programs from this Hand In the House of Iranian Artists, he stated: In the field of theater, at the same time as Corona intensified, I suggested several programs, such as reading stories by Hemingway or reading plays. جزوی It was one of them. We also had the idea to talk to the authors to get their latest posts in video format Performance reading But these ideas were not and are not feasible due to the financial constraints of the House of Iranian Artists, and on the other hand, artists should be given the right not to be present in the financial crisis that we are all struggling with. Join these programs for free and without pay.
Larian concludes with release of 2 DVD versions of podcasts “Greek Mythology” and “Gil گمشIf it is financed, he announced and said: “I hope that in the unfavorable financial situation and the crowded programs of the House of Iranian Artists, an opportunity Hand Give up these 2 sets Rich Widely reach its fans.
