We warmly invite you to join us at Te Whatu Stardome for a conversation with award-winning New Zealand musician and composer Rhian Sheehan.
Rhian’s work as a composer spans film, television, video games, multimedia installations, exhibitions and multiple planetarium shows screened across the globe. From Netflix to NASA, the Natural History Museum to the UN Headquarters — Rhian’s music has an almost universal reach from his recording studio in Wellington.
Rhian has consistently been involved with space-adjacent projects, including numerous sci-fi and fulldome planetarium shows. We’ll discuss how and why Rhian returns to music that evokes the atmosphere, beauty, and excitement of exploring space and the unknown.
This session will also feature the New Zealand premiere of Rhian’s latest fulldome project, One Step Beyond: A Journey to Mars from the National Space Centre in the U.K.
