cs1 is the first in a series of pieces examining chaotic systems. The visual system involves a series of relatively simple calculations, but using sound to push the system to it’s extremes causes unexpected behaviours, oscillations and the collapse of one of the visual structures. this piece is the beginning of a series of works which involves pushing sonic and visual structures to the point of collapse, and the consequences of doing so.
Built from sounds recorded using an 8-channel, real-time spatialisation system called systemic, controlled via a physics-based visual system built in processing, this is originally an 8-channel work which won the world prize in the Electracoustic Competition Musica Viva 2011.
NoisyMass is a live audiovisual performance work based on the game, Simon, in which one remembers sequences of button presses based on colours/sound being heard. NoisyMass incorporates game play, alongside increased risk and unpredictability, into my live audiovisual performance work. Built in Max, pd and processing, with the hardware constructed…
