Daughter Mary is a transmedia storytelling platform creating and performing music and dance for Film, TV, Games and other Media.
The Daughter Mary ensemble is an audio/visual movement company birthed by interdisciplinary artist Bianca Scout,
utilizing the widest forms of media available (film, television and radio formats). Bianca Scout is a trained dancer, choreographer,
self-taught musician, writer, and performer, working with artists to help them express themselves through visual montages and audio landscapes to find what
is the essence of their substance.
Daughter Mary is a collaborative framework, enabling dancers and performers from all backgrounds to sculpt / expand / broaden their practice.
Focusing on confidence and liberation, regardless of proficiency or skill. This is done through interactive storytelling,
experimental and narrative led. Stories are translated into choreography in a physical space, combining dance training and musicianship.
Story genres (sci-fi/horror/fantasy) are used as a cypher to engage critically with society in a political-ecological context and
character avatars are created that engage with questions of complicity and responsibility surrounding real world issues and narratives.
Daughter Mary will also have a gaming experience creating an interactive, live action role play game, where musical genres fluctuate and performance interventions occur sporadically.
Bianca's aim is to re-shape the framing of the display of narratives seen within mainstream media and industries,
using the motivations and drives of human interactions in a way that harnesses and nurtures our senses, creating interactions
with each other that feels honest but also compassionate. This is fundamental to recognizing how we change outdated and negative behaviors.
Ultimately, creating an online and offline game which stems from the world imagined from the music made with characters that are able to
evolve and come to life.
People are interested in the idea of choice, especially having had so much of it taken away, people are waking up to how easy authority
can influence us, and how we need to be the governor of our own choices.
Consent, communication and education are at the core of Daughter Mary's mission, which is constantly reframing traditional power dynamics.
Things are changing fast and not in a good way, we need this now more than ever.
Challenging the conventional ways and opening up new ways of behavior into mainstream representation.
People learn the best when they are laughing and when they are stimulated, so humor, play and pleasure are entwined with the story method of learning.
