| Synopsis: In 2035, technophobic
homicide detective Del Spooner of the Chicago PD heads the
investigation of the apparent suicide of leading robotics
scientist, Dr. Alfred Lanning. Unconvinced of the motive,
Spooner's investigation into Lanning's death reveals a trail
of secrets and agendas within the USR (United States Robotics)
corporation and suspicions of murder. Little does he know that
his investigation would lead to uncovering a larger threat to
humanity.

A NOTE FROM THE
COMPOSER |
|
I knew it was going to be an electronic hybrid
with orchestral material. Buck started working on sounds and I
started working on the melodic material. My idea for the score was
that I would take some acoustic orchestral sounds and manipulate
them electronically to have this human aspect that also could be
suited to the robot in part of the film. We worked with vocalist and
violin player Petra Haden. After I wrote a melody out for a theme,
Petra played it on violin, and then we electronically manipulated so
it worked for the robot part. It had human string sound, but you
couldn't really hear it as a violin. We also manipulated her voice
as well. My initial impulse was to have a combination of manipulated
sounds, both non-orchestral sounds that are manipulated to work with
the orchestra and vice
versa. |
