Spilling initially from a rock and roll womb, but building on years of intensive studies in Tuvan throat singing and classical Indian raga chanting, Soriah both subverts and elevates tradition by weaving the avant-garde into the ancient. Inspired by the Wayang Kulit (shadow puppet) tradition of Indonesia, Illuminacion del Escarabajo creates a post apocalyptic myth of mankind's reclaiming of ancient ritual for his spiritual evolution. This new form of the ancient shadow play combines elements of the spiritually visceral movement of Butoh artisits Mizu Desierto and Goody Plumb.
