Complex Composition

2009 - 2010

Complex Composition is a series of audiovisual concert pieces I produced at IAMAS. Both sound and images are generated in real-time simultaneously on each and every frame according to values calculated by a math formula written in SuperCollider. The algorithm takes shape as a pure geometric time axis.

The performance is achieved by execution of the program, excluding any control by hand. Focusing on purely computational audiovisual composition, the piece is designed to throw a question at the audience. What is a performance in computer music after all?
