In 2005 I assembled a group of artists and musicians to create a performance group that creates images and sounds in a live performance environment. Combining original photography, animation, and sound design with VJ mix dynamics, the group developed realtime compositing tools and techniques to generate pictures and soundtracks that may range from abstract to narrative. A primary goal of this project was to use "cinematic" visual techniques and narrative elements, while assembling the "final cut" live in real-time. As part of a continuing exploration into the integration of image and audio, musical elements and performance gestures were linked to animation cues and image manipulation with custom software.
