Jordan Bimm, NOW Magazine:

Geoffrey Shea takes on digital billboards with his interactive music projection piece TRIO. Revellers will be confronted by large projections of three folk musicians jamming, while corresponding audio tracks mix together to create a song. Viewers can dial a number on their mobile devices to change musicians in the trio – there’s a pool of nine, each with a different instrument – and create a new audio mix in the process.

Shea says he chose to showcase folk music because of its politics of participation and inclusion. “Folk was started by people who felt like they had something to say, who wanted to get involved. As a genre, it puts less emphasis on technique, and makes music more accessible.”

While it might seem contradictory to link folk music and high technology, Shea explains that the connection is all about art and democracy. “Everyone is getting creative with digital media these days, so I see media art as the new folk art.”

Commisioned by Arcadi, in collaboration with Cité de la musique, Ensemble Intercontemporain, IRCAM and Dmitri Kourliandski.

The live audiovisual concert will be on the 27th of november in Paris, at the Cité de la Musique.
We will take care of the realtime projected images while the Ensemble Intercontemporain will perform two pieces from the russian composer Dmitri Kourliandski.
Each musician of the Ensemble will be analyzed separately in Max-MSP, thanks to Thomas Goepfer from IRCAM, and the resulting data are sent to vvvv which generates the visuals. We will interact in realtime, controlling several parameters of the piece, as well as directing the camera movements.
