The Life and Death of 9413: A Hollywood Extra
Original soundtrack

This is an original soundtrack for The Life and Death of 9413: A Hollywood Extra (1928), an experimental silent film by Robert Florey and Slavko Vorkapich.
The music unfolds as an inner narrative, following the psychological descent of the protagonist and amplifying the film’s fragmented, expressionist imagery.

Rather than illustrating the action, the score inhabits the emotional tension of the film, moving between abstraction and narrative impulse. Sound becomes a space of alienation and transformation, reflecting the mechanization of dreams and the dissolution of identity within the Hollywood system.
A contemporary sonic reading of an early avant-garde vision, where cinema and music merge into a single, unstable experience.
