Abstract
Developed and produced by Rodrigo Azaola, Armida is a multimedia artwork, which reinterprets the 17th Century orientalist Opera, Armida by Jean Baptiste Lully and juxtaposes it with images of the Cronulla race riots that took place in Sydney in 2005 as a critique of rampant Islamophobia in Australia.
As part of the video installation, Hazeen, a Muslim black-death metal band from Sydney (comprised of Safdar Ahmed and Can Yalcinkaya) composed and recorded a death metal interpretation of the the aria "Come, come unrelenting hate" by Jean Baptiste Lully (1686), and footage from a Hazeen performance has been incorporated into the video.
