Dear Friends,
If you missed Little SIS last month, here's your last chance for 2010!
We are thrilled to be a part of this exhibition along side some
amazing national and international interactive works.
AH Squared's Little SIS appearing at the SEAM Symposium 15th and 16th
of October. Seymour Centre (corner of City Rd and Cleveland St)
10am-7pm
The exhibition, which includes several national and international
interactive works is free to the public or you may choose to take the
opportunity to register for one or both days of the symposium to take
full advantage.
AH Squared is a collaboration of interactive multimedia performance
between musician/digital media artist, Andre Hayter and performer/
choreographer Angela Hill. Our latest work Little SIS uses interaction
to both observe and influence behaviour with video-tracking, sound and
visuals. It is a Social Interaction System, encouraging movement and
changing spatial relationships as participants are tracked with a
video camera and the data is translated (via Processing and other open
source software) into algorithmically generated sound (pre-recorded
text, phonemes and vocal harmonics) and visuals (silhouette ‘blobs’).
The real-time interactive audio-visual score creates an abstracted
conversation that is reflexive of participatory involvement.
This social performance space hosts communal movement in the mediation
of performer and observer. Spontaneous scores demonstrate spatial
harmonics and emergent behaviour in the engagement with the “other” –
space, gravity, technology, audio-visual stimulus/response and most
importantly, other humans. The effect is mutual witnessing in a shared
space and responsive environment revealing how we learn through
relationship and relate through movement.
The exhibition is open from 10am-7pm Friday the 15th and Saturday the
16th.
Angela Hill will be joined by performers Ryuichi Fujimura, Leeke
Griffin (and hopefully you) at 1pm and 5pm each day. Move like no one
is watching. Except you’re not alone…
