"In fevered dreams, my subconscious replayed fragments of my current imprisonment like a stained-glass window assembled by a madman. In my dream I saw glimpses of machines without controls, photos of long-deceased dignitaries, instruments that remained silent, and poetry that I could not read. In short, they were involuntary ruminations of an imagination that had been overwhelmed by an unveiling of truths for which it was unprepared. "
Welcome to season two of Anachronism with seven-part adventure through The Golden Sparrow.
Part 8 - The Finale
Background: In March 2019, I opened a musical escape room in my hometown of Fort Collins. It ran for a few months and featured live musicians and musical puzzles. As a business venture, it was operationally difficult to sustain, but as an artistic enterprise it was quite rewarding. To create the room, I started with the story that grounded the experience and I thought it might make a nice addition to this podcast. I spent the last few months crafting the experience of the escape room into a short tale that I will now share over a series of weeks with you, my listeners. Join me for a plunge into the mysterious past of Fort Collins, CO with music and imagination. This story will also introduce you to a new recording of the music I composed along with the fragments that comprised the puzzles.
