Penelope's Endless Book of Magic
2016
Ralph Lewis
“Penelope's Endless Book of Magic,” is an ongoing radio opera serial that combines sequential narrative tropes from radio, 21st century operatic aesthetics, and live and fixed electroacoustic music techniques. In each episode, Penelope and her best friend explore a page in the book and try out a new spell. During his 2016 Wave Farm artist residency, Lewis will produce a nightly midnight broadcast sharing the preceding day's episodic progress.
