DESCRIPTION

Everyone Goes To Heaven In The Clothes They Died In is not just an art project – it is a profound, transformative artistic health and wellbeing experience that bridges the realms of art, self-awareness, and positive behavioral transformation. In a world yearning for reconnection, introspection, and healthier living, EGTH is essential – to inspire, empower, and change lives.

EGTH 2.0

Originally conceived as a live-stage work (EGTH 1.0), EGTH 2.0 goes far beyond towards realising David’s full vision for the work.

The expansion consists of:

• A Series of Albums
• An Immersive Museum Experience
• A 3D Digital Experience
• A Film and more…

Not just a composition with depth but a cultural work with gravity – one that can live across media and generate long-tail engagement.

PRIMARY FOCUS: ITERATIONS & RECORDINGS

At the heart of Everyone Goes To Heaven In The Clothes They Died In lies the composition itself – a work conceived to exist in multiple forms, each exploring a different dimension of its sonic architecture and offering unique pathways for distribution, presentation, and audience engagement. Together, these iterations build a sustained and layered release strategy, with each version adding depth and reach to the whole.

• MUSIC FOR 6 MECHANICAL PIANOS – Original Demos (ready for immediate release)
• MUSIC FOR 6 MECHANICAL PIANOS – Spatial Audio Recording*
• MUSIC FOR SYNTHESTRA – Orchestral Version (Software Instruments)*
• MUSIC FOR ELECTRONICS – Reimagined*
• MUSIC FOR 6 PIANISTS – Signature Artist Edition*
• MUSIC FOR ORCHESTRA – Performance & Recording*

Together, these six iterations demonstrate the versatility and depth of the composition – each one a standalone artistic statement and a strategic step in a larger ecosystem.

SECONDARY FOCUS: museum, 3d, a film AND MORE

• MIDI – Complete MIDI files for the entire work – enabling reinterpretations, electronic reworkings, and new adaptations.
• SHEET MUSIC – Professionally typeset full score and six individual piano parts ready for publication, distribution, or performance.
• FILM – A film of the original stage version: a large-scale invitation only event staged at Ulumbarra Theatre.
• 3D DIGITAL TRANSLATION – a 3D digital translation of the original stage version, accessible online to a global audience.*
• MUSEUM – Museum Style immersive new media experience including pre and post “show” experience, designed as a 2hr journey.*
• DOCUMENTARY – Extensive behind-the-scenes footage and interviews documenting the making of EGTH.*

Together, these elements make EGTH far more than a piece of music – they form a multi-dimensional creative universe with multiple entry points for audiences, collaborators, and commercial partners. The spatial composition is the nucleus, but the surrounding assets create long-term cultural and commercial depth.

* Pending finance and partners.
