Pittsburgh Sound + Image is honored to host visiting artist Eric Theise and Pittsburgh-based sound artist Trē Abalos for an evening unlike any other.
See + hear real-time cartographic improvisations using projected, manipulated digital maps by Theise in collaboration with Abalos’ soundscapes of flutes, samples, and looping electronics.
Experience:
- A visual wash of street grids, land masses, water bodies, and curiosities from built and natural environments.
- A sonic wash of winds
- Orphaned labels and free-floating symbology
- Elusive melodic lines
- Saturated colors and the subtlest of tints
- Rhythmic textures
- Jittery zooms, pans, and traversals
- Glitches in crowdsourced data.
Brief glimpses of past performances of A Synesthete’s Atlas are available for preview here: https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/asynesthetesatlas/
This performance will last approximately 50 minutes and will occasionally introduce strobing effects that may affect photosensitive viewers.
