For the Performance:
Sound Amplification (quadrophonic sound system with 4 speakers minimum)
Audio interface and speaker amplifier with 4 outputs (or 2 stereo amplifiers)
2 full HD projectors with a minimum of 1920x1080 native resolution
Bean bags and low seating arrangements for the crowd
For the projection of the recorded performance:
Stereo sound system
Projection screen
1 full HD projector with a minimum of 1920x1080 native resolution
***The performance CAN be expanded to a multi-speaker sound system, using ambisonics. for this the minimum required speakers would be 8 or 12 (depending on the stage arrangement layout), up to the 2nd order, 3D ambisonics.
The project aims to be an intuitive instrument in experimental audio-visual composition. We plan to develop the project to enable more visual content-creators to have access to musical composition, using innate visual compository ideas.
The software is composed of two parts: video analysis, and audio comparisons. The machine simplifies the videos to 12 hues color-space, exposing the pixels hiding in the gradients of the animations, reminiscing experiments done in the 60s and 70s with electronic music and motion graphics.
