Lyrics:

The longer and the longer he thinks about what happened,
the less and less he feels so bad, the less he feels so big. 
Now he isn't big or bad, now he's only wolf.
Not bad but feeling empty. 
And he wants to say he's sorry. 
The wolf stands at the mirror.
He says sorry (and he means it).

The wolf who used to be big and bad combs his wild wild hair,
and is taking Grandma cookies,
in his belly, in his belly. 
Sorry again, Grandma.
Every cookie is a "sorry". 
He really really means it, so he chews them extra well.

Next time I see a grandma, can I curl up on her lap?
Next time I see a grandma, can I ask her for a hug?
Wear a little jumper, sit and give a paw.
They say it would be good to have more different kinds of wolf.
I'm really not so bad you know.
I'll have another cookie 'cause I'm super super hungry.

Every human has a lap, but he can never lie there.
He knows where wild flowers grow, and how to give a paw.
He can cry as well as anyone, but nobody asks why.
He has another cookie 'cause he's super super hungry.
When the cookies are all gone the wolf is feeling better,
and just a little bigger, maybe even slightly bad.

The Big Bad Wolf Says Sorry (and he means it).

Força Do Rapé (Gustavo Soslaio Mello)

É a força do Rapé
Quero ver quem vai ficar de pé

Senta para levantar
O espirito do alto olhar

Quem é o eu da questão
É o eu da imensidão

Quem desperta e faz brilhar
O espírito do alto olhar

"over...and overr...and overrr...and overrrr...and overrrrr..." - Fragment

'Through the Looking Glass' is a binaural piece for headphones which explores the co-existence of binary opposites in human nature through the lens of female sexuality. As a listener, you are invited to take a surrealistic journey with our protagonist into the subconscious realms of society, where binary identities are scrutinised and questioned. Amongst childhood fears and excitement, a more multifaceted reflection of the human condition is revealed.

For the full immersive experience of 3D ambisonics, please listen with headphones!

Through The Looking Glass (binaural)(music theatre)

The ghost train can be a phantom locomotive speeding towards an unknown location, or a delightful carnival ride for children and adults. This piece invites you to take a ride into the deep recesses of your mind. What kind of horrors await you there, and what kind of wonderland might they uncover? The journey of self-confrontation is both terrifying and magical.
