Image-driven Sound Portrait

Created in collaboration with fine-art photographer Olga Wagemans, this project translated infrared video into sound in realtime. The video material was analysed in TouchDesigner and converted into control data transmitted wirelessly to a modular synthesizer.

Rather than accompanying the image, the sound was generated directly by the behaviour and movement within the footage itself. The final portrait installation was exhibited at Haute Photographie Rotterdam as a 15-minute audiovisual work presented on iPad with headphones.

I also created this second version on a different video. Which was not included in the exhibition.
