Alexis

Composer and living in Berlin since a year ago. Working with coding and Max/MSP.

Worked on a musical theatre show called “Shark the Musical”. Work over Zoom shows, using tracking to drive music, only moving slow.

Shows a series of audio clips of the interactive zoom performances. Where the audience had face filters.

Sound Garden: everybody is affecting the sound but nobody knows exactly what they are affecting.

In another show, the people can vote by tilting their head. The voting affescts the music. Also by moving the head around the camera space, the music can variate in terms of pitch and speed.

Then the pandemic ended and the next step was to create an opera on the video streaming platform Twitch. One of the original concepts was to send people back home.
