Newton 09 is a retro sci-fi sound art radio theatre production. Music and sound composed by Peter van Haaften, a story by Daniel Nadeau, and an accompanying graphic novel adaptation by illustrator Robin Clugston combine to create a new trans-disciplinary work, inspired by classic British broadcasting.

Presented in three acts, Newton 09 chronicles the re-emergence of a lost art after generations of silence. 300 years in the future, mental slavery has buried the memory of joyful activity. In a house, on a hill, a lonely electronic mind has been waiting to remind the world of its forgotten beat.

With live voice acting, a progressive electronic score, and original atmospherics, Newton 09 looks to make an immersive electroacoustic experience accessible to new audiences. The piece takes ideas from the past, present and future--patching them into a surreal sound odyssey for all ages.
