Monday July 31st, 5.30-6pm
Tuesday August 1st, 5.30-6pm
A
jam session between a digital artist/animator (Marjan
Moghaddam), a computer scientist (Flavia
Sparacino), two experimental guitarists (Adam
Caine and Michael Iannantuono),
the audience of a live performance and Computer Vision software
especially designed for this performance. The performance uses
the art rock and experimental music of New York City based guitarists
Adam Caine and Michael Iannantuono, who will be performing a
30 minute avante jazz inspired improvisational piece. The musical
performance is accompanied by Marjan Moghaddam’s animations
which combine pre-recorded elements mixed with ‘live’
and improvisational visuals driven by crowd detection and live
music modulation. The piece allows for the audience to actively
and freely participate in the jam session through unencumbering
motion capture technologies using computer vision. Some of the
visuals generated during the performance will be output as 2d
and 3d prints as further iterations of this jam session.
