DESCRIPTION:
Here's the result of two weeks of research on sound and movement interaction, together with the mindblowing handstand-artist Matt Pasquet, that took place at DOCH, School of Dance and Circus, at the end of september 2016! All sounds in the video are controlled in realtime by the performers movements! ** More info below!**

WHATS GOING ON?

- A contact microphone is used to pick up sounds from the floor.

- One or more smartphones running TouchOSC is mounted on the body of the performer to measure the G-force in three dimensions with the built in accelerometer. The signal is sent over WiFi to control different aspects of the sound.

-- When first used, (in the shaking scene) the downward gravity is controlling the volume of the sound. When Matt is in free fall, the volume is fully upp (volume=1-G).

-- In the second case, two smartphones are used, one on each leg, controlling two separate melodies. The angle of each leg controls the pitch, and rotation controls volume.

-- In the third use, downward gravity is measured, similar to the first, but this time controlling the playback speed of the sound. (Note that changing the angle of the accelerometer also changes the perceived gravity in each particular axis.)

Signal processing of the accelerometer data and sound is done in Bidule by Plogue Art Et Technologie running on a Macbook Air.
