Niterain is an excerpt from the opera OLINGLINGO by Jeepneys. OLINGLINGO is a ceremony to invoke ancestral memory from the future to the past; Earth to Outerspace. Taking place is a world of synthesized sounds reminiscent of a tropical jungle...in outerspace. This piece is about the psychological and embodied yearning for a distant home, and your relationship with home when you have been displaced. Movement feels somewhat familiar, yet somewhat uncomfortable. How does the body respond to a synthesized environment that emulates home?
