Commission: video project for opera “Reagan’s Children”, Chicago. 5 Single channel videos developed for Opera score (1 1/2 hours).
"Our 40th president was "everybody's grandfather", and his portrait looms large over our cultural mantel - the legacy of this national patriarch casts a wide shadow over American politics today. Reagan wasn't just a father in metaphor, his own family has been a constant presence in the public eye. It's this other legacy that "REAgan's Children" puts to the stage.
Reagan's Children is an apolitical piece, an exploration of fatherhood across three generations: it's the story of one man from the Greatest Generation, in the words of his children, the voice of Baby Boomers, as set to music by a composer whose date of birth places him squarely in Generation X." - Joe Tracz (press release)
