A duet of motorized piano and hyperreal projections combines human and technological elements through a system of unconventional generative algorithms.
Experience an immersive journey into artistic process, inspired by music and traditional painting techniques. This groundbreaking exhibition, originally composed a live performance in collaboration with musician SETA, presents a series of audiovisual paintings created by the artist in concert with generative algorithms. The exhibition employs technology as a lens to explore music for the 21st-century audience and rethink the traditional artistic techniques in the context of human-machine relationship.
Projected on a large scale, extremely high resolution hyper-realistic digital brushstrokes unfold like on canvas. Each brushstroke corresponds to a note, creating polyphonic synthetic landscapes. The same algorithms driving the hyper-realistic digital brushstrokes also materialize in the sound of piano via the Yamaha Disklavier DC7X ENSPIRE PRO, experienced through 24-channel L-Acoustics L-ISA Immersive Hyperreal Sound technology.
This exhibition aims to blur the boundaries between image and sound, presenting a series of immersive audiovisual installations along with motorized pianos. Transient does not generate finite music and paintings, rather it presents the impermanence that lies behind its algorithmic potential. —Quayola
