Sinopsis: |
Vis a Vis (2002) is a mixed-media artwork that combines synthetic music and images. The two media share a number of governing principles, both technical and formal. For example, the technique of convolution, in which two sounds or images are “blended” in imaginative ways, is used throughout the piece. The work is structured through the varied repetition of elements of both media that are introduced at the opening.
Vis a Vis is in three distinct sections of approximately equal length. Each section introduces its own unique elements while developing material that preceded it. The POVray scene description language was used to generate the images, and the Acoustic Mirror plug-in was used for the music. Final compositing of the music and pictures occurred in Adobe Premiere.
