In MIRROR everything you know about reality is about to change. Movement becomes sound - sound becomes light - time is bending in the mirror - and matter dissolves in a fluid stream of particles connecting everything in constant motion.

One Oculus Rift, one Microsoft Kinect 2, a pair of headphones, an array of contact-, directional and ambient-microphones and a PC with VVVV + MaxMSP is the technical setup for this experiment.

This installation analyses the movement of the user and transform sound and visuals in the very same moment. A MAXMSP-Patch is analysing the head and limb-positions and generates 3d-sound-scapes (binaural) in order to boost the immersive experience.

Depending on the agility of the user the audio-visual journey is told faster or slower and is connected tightly to every movement and noise happening.

MIRROR premiered at the NODE Festival for Digital Art in April 2015 as "M2" and is shown since then at selective events and locations.
