Ghost In The Machine

Level: Medium
Time: 7:20

Where does the line between creation and consciousness begin to blur? Ghost in the Machine explores the tension between artificial precision and human emotion through powerful, cinematic soundscapes. The show opens with the relentless energy of Randall Standridge’s “Deus Ex Machina,” a mechanical pulse that propels the ensemble into motion. The music then softens and questions itself in Billie Eilish’s “What Was I Made For?” — a haunting reflection on identity and purpose. The production builds to a charged finale drawn from “Overture” from Tron: Legacy, blending digital intensity with human spirit in a thrilling conclusion. At once mechanical and deeply human, Ghost in the Machine is a story of discovery — a spark of life inside the code.
