Chasing More Waves
Builds on the 2011 performance at LPM following a second residency in the Experimental Television Studio in New York just before its closure in June 2011. During this time another 15 hours of raw material was recorded using entirely analog equipment. Simple tones, buzzes and glitches were made visual using the 70’s technique of voltage controlled video synthesis and commited to miniDV.
These analog recordings are then re-sequenced, retuned and mixed together in new combinations using proprietary software and output as a split screen display.
The program allows the playback of any file, in any screen position at variable tempo/ pitch. Material can be looped, pitched dynamically, triggered from any playback position, or re-sequenced, offering a wide range of performance possibilities and variation.
