Music Video in Collaboration with Soheil Shayesteh
Summary of projects
“Infinite Range” was held at ‘de Doelen’, featuring a universe in which sound and image merged into a single element.The piece explores the untouched and extremely unique fusion of the kamancheh, strings, and live processed electronics, and visuals. ↩︎
With the unique composition of Soheil Shayesteh, for Kamancheh, Soprano, electronics and live visuals, me as a visual artist and Kristia Michael as a singer were invited to perform his composition for a live audio-visual performance at the Former Pieter Baan Centre, in Utrecht.
Uncloud was more than a festival to me. It was a movement, a space where innovation thrives and we could create an immersive experience that pushes the boundaries of creativity.
For this performance I did live ink painting which was processed and manipulated live using the live audio signal from the musician. ↩︎
The music was composed by David Lang, the American minimal-composer who intended to capture the creation story in this music without emphasizing any religion in particular; This led him to choose only the most essential words from the first chapter of Genesis as his text considers them to be the first substance that’s the basis of today’s world.
Visually, I imagined the words to be meditative, fragile, and hypnotic as I heard the music.
The track of the video is binaural to create a 3-dimensional abstract and illusionistic room. Water plays a fundamental role in the floating and continuity as each day represents and each day ends with the bubble burst. ↩︎
