Media Installations

Wilton’s Music Hall
Ongoing throughout CMMR week

Re:****Sitruuna ja meduusa

Merja Nieminen & James Andean

An audiovisual installation by visual artist Merja Nieminen and sound artist James Andean. The installation constructs a 'live' dynamic system, comprised of projected 3D graphics and projected sound, creating a virtual environment or ecosystem which changes and evolves in real-time. It explores the capacity of the spectator to create relationships – to build worlds – from multiple sensory information.

Cor Cordis

Clare Cullen & Evan Morgan

Installation using wireless, wearable bio-sensors for interactive sonification and visualisation of processed physiological data. Up to four participants are asked to wear wireless sensor devices to monitor their heart rate and respiratory movements. This physiological data is processed in real-time to explore the dynamics of emotional and physiological covariance between participants during collaborative performance. This information is then mapped to a light sculpture which responds with real-time changes in light and sound, providing feedback to the audience and the performers.

Sound Mapping London Tea Houses / G.Hack

Nela Brown, Ilze Black, Alice Clifford, Kavin Preethi Narasimhan, Nicola Plant

An interactive tabletop installation that invites visitors to navigate London through its contemporary tea culture. The soundscape recordings of different tea houses, made by members of G.Hack, are mapped to 33 London boroughs. By placing a technology enhanced glass teapot onto one of the boroughs, the soundscape from the corresponding tea house is played. The installation uses reacTIVision software to track the movement of the glass teapot. The map of London boroughs is constructed in Illustrator and made interactive in Processing, while corresponding sounds are driven by the interaction between reacTIVision and Max/MSP.

Musical Ping Pong Bat

Mathieu Barthet, Tadas Sasnauskas, Adam Whitfield

The first ever Musical Ping Pong Bat will be showcased in Wilton's Green Room letting table tennis players become music conductors in a mixed reality game.
