Digital opera is an emerging music form that reimagines opera as an entirely mediated experience. This creative research contributes developmental practice and theoretical perspectives on an underdeveloped subset: opera for web and mobile media. Component artworks include 'The Village', a web opera (2015) and 'Fragments', a prototype mobile opera (2019).

This item contains world map artwork for 'The Village' (including an example of preproduction materials) as well as video overviews of the user interface and participatory elements (the 'Digital Chorus'). Please refer to the included materials for credits.
