The shows follow a 2/4 day workshop in wich 10 people are prepared for the execution of the performance. During the show the musician and the ensemble compose a single, abstract, completely improvised, yet perfectly synced, audio-video stream. The visual track is performed in real time, using a custom generative software. Images are controlled by the ensemble through a set of midi instruments connected to a single computer. The software recieves the music and the performers can link it to different image parameters as well as controlling the scene manually. The result is a highly organic audiovisual show in wich the sounds seem to be produced directly from the images. The 4 day workshop preceding the show has the function of preparing the attendees for the performance.
