on​/​off

Research output: Non-textual formComposition

Abstract

ON/OFF is the result of a collaborative process of creation/composition by the hand and eye of the team members involved. It is, merely and only, a vision and reflection that encompasses various perceptions of a vision of the present space that surrounds us. The creative process facilitated an exploration of ideas and elements that were worked on and organized with each other in a structural way, with the aim of creating a solid and correlative discourse between music and image. During the performance, over indeterminate periods of time, AI systems and musicians contribute to what can be a reference of vision and perspectivist time travel. In the performance space is an ego chamber that turns itself on and off, as if it were seen and heard. We compute the future by going back in time, through models and our own records that constitute a possible videography.

Recorded live on September 23, 2023 at the 19th Circular Performing Arts Festival.
