Our world is burning, society is in moral discord, the Duality of Man has fractured our world at its core. This is our stage where the most wicked and heavenly have come to decide our collected fate DJ Good, representing all that is righteous, loving and pure. They will stop at nothing to preserve their legacy and the ones they love. Evil DJ – a being of malignant wrath, this chaos demon is here to shake things up and accelerate us into a new world order. ~Let’s Go~ ~~~ I made and performed this DJ Set for ClownCon, a charity con within in a con that our local friend group runs at MEGAPLEX! The whole bit is we fit an entire con experience into 3 and a half hours! It's goofy in a cryptic internet kind of way, but also a chance for all of us to express ourselves artistically! (You can kind of get a taste of what it's about from the Twitter page! https://twitter.com/theclowncon ) This year, we really full on with stage production at this event. We had lighting cues, video production, choreographed bits, live visuals and music! Sparky event rented an industry grade PA SYSTEM and radios– it was honestly the most labor I've ever seen put into a "panel" slot event hah. The music you hear was performed and pantomimed live. Sorrel (aka Friends Without Faces!) performed as DJ Good, wearing a bright yellow, Parappa meets Kandy Kid inspired outfit. I performed as Evil DJ, in a Y2K-hacker esque fit, wearing all black, a hoodie that drapes down like a trench coat, goggles and alien glasses. We were introduced obscured in robes, and revealed our selves in time with the Voice Over work at the introduction of the track! Throughout the set we'd fight over the DJ controller, flick each other off and bad mouth each other to the audience. We decided our "collective moral fate" with a sword fight with balloon swords. It was all VERY fun! I had a blast making a narrative based DJ set with "sides" and "stakes". Hoping to do more with these two characters in the future <3
