Experimenter En Couleur

Form, Colour and Time Paper
Other than progress on the musical compositions, Experimenter En Couleur is writing an essay called 'Form, Colour & Time'. The essay analyses the inner dynamics of form, colour and time in music, with reference to the writings of many notable contemporary artists. view writings


See-So Installation
Related to 'Form, Colour And Time', a new project is now in full flow to develop a device with which one can paint sound in real time. This will enable the marking of a digital canvas, to produce abstract films, at the same time playing a sound according to the form and colour frequency of the mark made on the canvas. Thus a musical composition is formed with and from the visual. The process will then be reversed, so performing music will create accurate accompanying visual representations. This will form installation and performance pieces in the future.


798 Factory Installation for DIAF 2007 Beijing
The first collaboration for several years has Experimenter En Couleur working with sound artist and improvisor
Yan Jun, on a site specific piece relating to the 798 Factory/Dashanzi Art Project in Beijing. The piece refers to the history of the district by taking live signals from remnants of the original services/ductwork that form the axis into the site. Mechanical devices and generative computer based machines will affect the mood of visitors to the exhibition. Zafka has since joined the project and the three will work together until completion.

Evolution Synthetica
Having presented two shows of Evolution Synthetica at the Victoria and Albert Museum with Shroomstudio, Experimenter En Couleur continues to develop connections and interactivity between the live organisms of the performance and the digital domain. (Evolution Synthetica is a symbiotic performance of evolving sound and image. Live experiments describing evolutionary processes use generative sound synthesis, microscopy, macro footage and live generative digital animation to create a sensory spectacle bridging art and science).
