“Communion”, a generative piece created by Matt Pyke (Universal Everything) and Field.io – Marcus Wendt and Vera-Maria Glahn. Music was written by Simon Pyke and plays an integral part in the piece. The installation is in a rectangular room with 6 separate projection on the walls creating almost a 360º environment. The final piece includes an array or evolving creatures going through stages of development – evolution from simple to complex with human like properties with generative behaviours, deeply immersive and “a celebration of an audio visual synesthetic experience “ – Marcus. Matt describes the process as “instilling living characteristics to the dancing forms, from simple cellular structures through to multi-limbed creatures. Although abstract and unfamiliar, the beings feel alive and part of a community and they express the wonder of nature, the creation of something from nothing, a unique ecosystem “ .

Amon Tobin's live audio/visual fantastic visual journey will be presented in selected cities around the world. Designed in conjunction with Blasthaus, VSquared Labs, Vita Motus Design, Leviathan and others.
“It’s by far the most exciting development in my personal quest for some control over nature,” Tobin explains. “Anything from a grain of found sound to my own voice can be transformed into something new.”

Spanish industrial designer and art director Emilio Gomariz has what could be described as a wildly varied portfolio. His animated gif series entitled Extremity is of particular interest. The images are ‘tridimensional collages’ utilizing 3D models (bodies) which Gomariz found floating around the internet.

The long silence on the blogg has an explanation in my intensive work during the summer and the preparations for the finale show for "Maping Motion" at The Dundee Master Show from Media Arts & Imaging (University of Dundee).
From the July until the beginning of August 2009 I cooperate during the project with two visual artists: Joanna Stacewicz aka Deftoo and Marco Donnarumma aka S.A.D. This collaboration was essential for my work since the finale application is constructed in Pure Data. Marcos programming skills made it possible to further develop Pure Data patch I started during the Pure Data workshop in Dundee with help from Jamie Allen from Culture Lab. During second part of August I work on photo gallery for the documentation of actions and interactions during the MSC Show Exhibition as an continuously expanding photo gallery combined with a database system.
To accomplish that I get help from Blazej Pindelski programmer, graduate student from Computer Since program at the University of Abertay Dundee.
The finale output: "Shadow Dance" and "Many Frames" are up and running during MSc Show at Visual Research Center/ DCA (Dundee Contemporary Arts)
Dundee UK. Visible From 12-19 September.
"Shadow Dance" – site-specific installation, based on audiences interaction with motion captured corporal movements projected on the screen, build in open source programming language Pure Data and presented as a compiled movement on one frame In web based gallery.
"Many Frames" – is production based on real-time webcam-captured movement presented with a time delay in many different frames at the same time. It is an ongoing investigation on movement’s patterns as well as it is a visual exploration over aesthetic values of singular movement....

Synchronous Objects, is a project explaining choreographic structures of William Forsythe through visual communication techniques and a set of data visualization tools for capturing, analysing and presenting. That according to Forsythe self, to make dance accessible and understandably for broad public. The project is a visionary collaboration with The Ohio State University
“The project relied not only on ACCAD and the Department of Dance, which are long term collaborators, but also on experts in architecture, geography, visual communications, computer science and engineering, and statistics”
It is a historic breakthrough bringing development of dance and choreography in to the new areas of technology. Follow Forsythe symposium: Choreographic Objects as live video streaming.

Todd Thille (VJ Synesthete) skapar ljud och grafik från växter. I sin audiovisuell set använder han elektroder kopplade till krukväxter. Imput från växterna överförs genom mjukvaran baserad på Ardurino som översatte dessa signaler till ljudvågor och skickade dessa samtidigt till laptop för vidare MIDI konvertering. Jag hade möjligheten att se hans performance under Live Performance Meeting I Rom i maj i år och blev djup imponerat av den audiovisuella variationer som Todd producerat med hjälp av växterna. Mer om möttet i Rom går att läsa i Todds event report.

Mediamatics under juni i år har arrangerat: "Workshop Interactive Dance Film @ Cinedans". Under intensiva 5 dagar har vi jobbat med Korsakow tool / eingine för icke linjer berättande. Tänk Kurosavas Rashamon med interaktiva moment! Det intressanta med verktyget är att den fungerar mycket bra med dans video och koreografi. "In Motion" mitt eget projekt var en omarbetning av ett film material från år 2000. Ett gammalt ide som fick luft under vingarna tack vare möjligheten till ett sökord system som Korsakow erbjuder. "In Motion" är en real tids baserad dance-video-mix. Mer om workshopen på Mediamatics egen sida
