Inspired by the novel Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison, The Lower Frequencies depicts the particular experience of a nameless narrator and his confrontation with the American Dream.  This experience is brought to life through illustrative spoken word, dance, elements of hip-hop, soul, and jazz in a series of vignettes which comment upon the socioeconomic injustices caused by enduring institutional systems which have muted the voices, camouflaged the bodies, and denigrated the lives of the black community in the United States.
