An interactive, immersive journey where you play a newly conscious octopus on a quest to find your missing mother. You move through otherworldly landscapes, whether at the center of the earth or deep in outer space, co-created through your play and discovery. Composer and co-devisor Zyggy improvises and layers sound and music responsive to your choices. you wake up/octopus is a surreal, joyful and moving exploration of embodied identity, gender, loss, agency and collaborative empathy.
