2022 Disenchantment of a Pentagram
About
‘Disenchantment of a Pentagram’ is my final project for the M.A. Scenography and Communication programme at FH Dortmund. My written thesis was on the history and identity within the black metal scene and is titled ‘The meandering human identity and local mythology’. In the thesis, I have connected the various influences of black metal music and the branches taken from the local heritage. The theme I have chosen for the colloquium is black metal subculture and its various impacts on contemporary society. The focus is on the atmosphere created both visually and sonically in the space. To achieve this, I have composed a black metal track and performed it as a one-member band, which is also a typical attribute of many black metal acts.
