"The Flower of Life" · Setup 1/2

In this video you can see how we arranged the huge speaker with the projector to create this living, breathing sound sculpture, that creates such a calm, meditative atmosphere.

One laptop is running @vcvrack, the other laptop runs Tooll3 with a patch that also has two states.
Both are everchanging...

#LazyWeb request: Searching for a classic video about an interactive art installation (pre 2010) in which recorded audio (via microphone) is reconstructed via thousands/millions(?) of short samples (grains) of a large corpus of pop music videos. The video was quite humorous and featured Michael Jackson and a great explanation (incl. Matrix "bullet time" moves) of how the (Shazam-like) mapping & matching of audio spectra works (via performing n-dimensional shortest distance searches for each time slice/spectrum to select the most similar sample). German artist, but seemingly unfindable these days...

Made a little video of us polishing up this collaborative, We Are Magic sculpture for two upcoming traveling exhibitions. We are, Alicia Eggert, James Akers (myself), Jason Mishou, and Marco Buongiorno Nardelli. The four of us met at Alicia's studio in Denton, Texas to work all in the same room. Its actually the first time we have all met up, and its been a real treat!

Maybe you don't get the sense in the video, but there are numerous instances of feeling like it cannot crescendo any more, and it still does- until it climaxes, generating a barrage of blinky lights and generative vowel soungs.

The installation is activated by touching the hand pedestal, and holding hands with someone else touching the other hand pedestal. Each time the sculpture is activated it looks and sounds different.

Next stop, Urbanglass NYC!
