On the Merits: Labor Trafficking

I'm releasing a soundtrack today for a new documentary by Relativity. It's a story about using artificial intelligence and data to combat a very human problem—mirrored in the half-electronic, half-acoustic instrumentation.

Writing a theme for Ronny Marty—trafficking survivor turned advocate—was a particular highlight. As ever with documentaries, it's a privilege to be entrusted with helping tell such personal stories.

The score spends plenty of time subtly supporting the narrative with transitions and texture, but also cuts loose a bit while the experts talk about Alan Turing, AI, and trafficking in supply chains.

The filmmaking team at Relativity offered great instincts throughout, and even some straight-up geeky audio ideas (time-stretching! granular synthesis!)
