Grains & Pixels
Live Cinema
A live cinema show with artificial intelligence and interactive media in wich improvisation is augmented in real-time by custom interactive visualization and sonification software.
Grains & Pixels is a collective project involving three artists - Bertrand Gondouin, Jacob Munkberg, and Kristofer Sunden Ringnér. The project is a creative encounter between artificial intelligence, sound and image. By designing their own software, controllers and a protocol connecting the computers the artists have invented a new instrument for live improvisation.
Having developed their own instruments for sound, music and movement individually, they now come together to play. They bring their different instruments and experiences together, focusing on experiment and improvisation in a collaboration where the working process as such is an integral part.
Grains & Pixels is conceived as a set of different structures that can be played and performed in many ways. The animation of these structures create complex and nuanced images and sounds which combine abstract and figurative.
