S3 E8 Typhon: The Constellations of Pisces and Capricornus
Some say Hera birthed the monstrous Typhon, others that it was Gaia, the Earth. Whoever it was wanted to challenge Zeus and create a new order in the cosmos. Written and directed by Bibi Jacob. Featuring Sandy Bernard as Hera. Narrated by Bibi Jacob. Sound and production by Geoff Chong. Sources include Nonnus’ ‘Dionysiaca’, Euripides' ‘Prometheus Bound’, the ‘Homeric Hymn to Apollo’, Hesiod’s Theogony, Roberto Calasso’s 'The Marriage of Cadmus and Harmony’ and Aratus’ ‘Phaenomena.’ We were also loosely inspired by the philosophical concept of ‘musica universalis’.
Original audio drama with spectacular soundscapes, based on the Greco-Roman myths behind the constellations. Written and directed by Bibi Jacob, these moving and sometimes humorous tales, brim with tragedy, injustice, and violence.
