Ok - it's our turn at bat this Friday in the fabulous 2nd annual Issue Project Room "Points in a Circle" Festival...
http://www.issueprojectroom.org/events.html
We've had a late breaking change in plan... new concept / new title...
"Dream Baby Dream (Machine)" (premiere) will still involve 16 channels of sound and interactive stroboscopic light... however there will be a change in the basic configuration of information flow...
The raw building material of the piece will be comprised from two primary sources: one sound the other light:
1. Sound generated from the combination and difference of two room tuned analog sign wave oscillators variously filtered, delayed, and in this case
digitally processed as well...
2. A video camera will be trained upon a "Dream Machine" (a type of 'analog' rotating lamp producing stroboscopic "flicker" designed and promoted by beat era artist Brion Gysin) occupying a central position in the circular IP Room...
this unaltered video signal of the Dream Machine's oscillations will then be projected and also routed via MXP to provide a control signal to move individual sound elements around the 16 channel loud speaker matrix which will itself be divided into two 8 channel hemispheres to process stereo input sources...
What results should be a multi-sensorial 'harmonic" meeting of oscillating waves of sound and light...
The audience will be encouraged to experience the piece from floor level with eyes either open or closed...
First on the program - starting @ 8:30 or 9:00 pm - will be a new piece by Stephan Moore the creator of IPR's 16 channel hemispherical system...
The estimated start time of 'Dream Baby Dream (Machine)' will be in the 9:30 -10:00 pm range with an estimated duration of 50 to 60 minutes
(so feel free to come by "late" if you need to be somewhere else earlier...)
