Integration.03
Integration.03 is a body and motion controlled audio-visual live performance. The performer plays dynamic light and sound structures with the body as control interface. 'Structures' is to be taken quite literally: the performer and audience are immersed in voluminous 3D light projections, giving an almost tangible quality to the ephemeral audio-visual media. The piece is an improvisation solo.
The visual effect is achieved by a circle of three beamers projecting into a haze filled space. The haze cloud makes the light beams visible, thus creating dynamic shapes and structures in a pseudo-holographic fashion.
The audio-visual system is based on particle systems rendered visible and audible in the performance space. The elements are in constant motion while the performer steers, moulds and shapes the cloud by body motion and gestures. The aim is to make performing the virtual instrument as spatial and tangible as possible.
