Interactive Audio Performance

This installation features a concert of improvised electronic music and audience involvement in the sound production process. A recording booth is stocked with objects that can be used to produce sounds. They are recorded directly, and then modified and fed into the concert in progress. A mobile camera captures the acoustic and visual atmosphere of the concert. Out of this great diversity of sounds and apparent chaos, an audible structure emerges that, in turn, dissipates on its own or can be fractured by the audience. The musicians react to the audiences moods and tonal contributions, and thus also become listeners themselves. The atmosphere of the setting is manifested in auditory and visual imagery. Meanwhile, a VJ projects pictures of the concert mixed with his own graphic art.
