'Breath'

Sound and light installation that invites the audience to contemplate their relationship with death in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. The piece is based on statistics of world wide death rate and the estimates of the daily percentages of COVID-19 related deaths. Every time a person dies a sound is heard and the lights go out.

SPACE ECHO

SPACE ECHO (Sam Sernavski / Karl Heding)

Performance at Øbro Jagtvej Bibliotek , Copenhagen Denmark as a part of the interactive new media art event "SYNTETISK" on 14th of May.

Live Improvisation with audience participation. Members were given access to WiiRemotes acting as MIDI controllers to various Digital Instruments. Enabling even audience members without any prior musical training, to participate in the performance and improvise the music with the musicians.

Interface Design for "SYNTETISK"

I was responsible for the Design of the Sonic and Visual Interactive Interfaces for the event SYNTETISK.

WiiRemotes are used as MIDI interfaces that control the sound parameters of various Digital Musical Instruments created in Ableton Live. The WiiRemotes are also used as controllers of visual processes in Processing.

Acoustic Guitar Augmentation

Guitar processed in SuperCollider . Sounds played back through sound-drivers (vibration speakers) attached to the body of the guitar. An integration of acoustic and electronic sound in one single instrument.

Inspiration from Otso Lähdeoja. My appraoch makes use of a single-coil pickup, it does not provide the numerous advantages of using hexaphonic pickups (as seen in Otso's work). However, I believe it makes for a more acessible solution for the interested musician.

In the video all the recorded sounds were emanated from the guitar's body. No post production.

Sympathy For The A.I.
