Requiem for Edward Snowden

This large scale live audiovisual performance piece focuses on a number of themes relevant to the 21st century, based around the actions of whistleblower Edward Snowden; loss of faith and security, invasion of privacy and personal sacrifice. The piece explores the consequences of this situation through electronic sound, acoustic instrumentation and live visuals, through the gestures and performance from live electronics performers, a clarinetist and string section, which are analysed and interact with the real-time visuals

Pixidust - Yati Durant (r) and Jules Rawlinson (l) 25.05.17 take 2

This is an audio recording of the second take of improvisations by Yati Durant and Jules Rawlinson on 25th May 2017 using two modular synthesizers and an Elektron Machinedrum mixed directly to the input of Pixivisor software. The audio output represents the input that creates visuals, and provided a visual feedback that contributed to the communicational development of the improvisation. In these initial takes, the aim was to establish a basis for the improvisations and gain a feeling for the audio/visual hierarchy they endorse.Durant, Yati; Rawlinson, Jules. (2018).
