Gorgonise Me

Gorgonise Me

Universe: God Complex

Author: George Saoulidis

Synopsis

A dark story inspired by Medusa’s sister Evryali and a piece of unplayable piano music composed by Iannis Xenakis in 1973.

Background

To gorgonise — an old English word based on Greek meaning *to have a paralysing effect on someone*.

Evryali is a Gorgon, Medusa’s sister, noted for her petrifying gaze and bellowing cries. Unlike Medusa who was a mortal cursed, Evryali was immortal.

The music piece *Evryali* for solo piano cannot physically be played — the player has to choose which notes to play and which not to, resulting in a performance that transcends form and function.

Recommendation

Listen to the Evryali piece as you read.
