Kosmologia is an ongoing, Chicago-based creative project and arts collective led by Carmen-Helena Téllez, focusing on the production of inter-artistic events that involve music, other arts, and technology that meet the spirit and concerns of our time.
Commissioned by The Princeton Festival, the video Dreaming/Undreaming is inspired by two short stories – “The Library of Babel” and “The Aleph” – by the masterful Argentinian writer Jorge Luis Borges. This new work creates a unique visual and musical experience, an art-music video in which the audience travels between worlds of persuasive dreams and deceptive realities in our universe. A piano recital moves seamlessly through original compositions created specifically for this project in conversation with the music of Johann Sebastian Bach (1685 – 1750), the master of polyphony.
