Marcus Lyall - Pitch Control

Irini Papadimitriou — Thu, 28 Jan 2010 15:50:40 +0000

Pitch Control is a fully-playable instrument/art installation that invites the public to explore audiovisual possibilities. A keyboard controls a projected choir of 25 singers and each note on the keyboard - replaced by recorded singing - causes a different singer's image to appear projected in the room. A dynamic visual composition is built up as the instrument is played. The singers' faces are projected onto a group of identical shapes, to form a ghostly disembodied choir.

Pich Control was first seen at The Science Museum’s Dana Centre as part of Takeaway Festival May 19th-30th 2009.

Time:

6 Mar 2010 - 12:00pm - 18 Apr 2010 - 9:00pm
