Masterclass by Vibeke Sørensen. Vibeke Sørensen is an artist and professor working in digital multimedia, animation, interactive architectural installation, physical computing, and networked visual music. Her creative work includes Illuminations (2013), a large scale illuminated folding screen, an interactive visual-music installation incorporating plant biofeedback, ubiquitous computing, and electro-acoustic music that she composed. Vishwaroop (2014) is a 4K generative dome animation with music by sitar virtuoso Kartik Seshadri, and Mood of the Planet (2015) is a kinetic light-sound sculpture incorporating global, real-time big data, Twitter, and music composed by Sørensen. Her work, Mayur (2015), with music by Kartik Seshadri, is a 4K animation inspired by Asian textiles, symbols, and cosmologies. She has produced wearable technologies incorporating biofeedback, abstract animation and music including Digital Amulet: Smart Necklace (2017), and her most recent installation Starlight (2021) is in collaboration with NTU physicists Prof Lock Yue Chew and Dr. Andri Pradana, as well as CSH Vienna / SFI Complexity Scientist Prof John Stephen Lansing. Starlight is an interactive installation that visualizes Quantum Entanglement using actual data from the Cosmic Bell Experiment. Her current research and creative work engages bio and eco-art/design, and at the Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences (CASBS) at Stanford University it includes explorations of musical and calendrical polyrhythms from Bali to Kauai, and on the emergence of Jungian archetypes from dream networks.

Generative art uses code and algorithms in a creative and artisanal manner to generate infinite animations that never repeat. But how? In her masterclass, Anna Carreras will introduce us to the peculiarities and characteristics of this medium, illustrating it with her personal research and body of work. The talk offers an exploration of how algorithms and code, used in an artisanal and creative way, can generate unique and infinite abstract animated pieces.The presentation concludes with a Q&A session open to audience participation.

Visual Music is one of the most historically rich subgenres of abstract audiovisual art. From its beginnings, women have always been working in this field at the intersection of technology, sound, and film, yet most of them do not appear in history books. In this masterclass, we honoured some of these pioneers, all of whom were obsessed with seeing sound or hearing images.

In this talk, Paul Prudence talked about his performance work, which focuses on ways in which sound and generative video can be cross-wired to create live visual-music experiences. He unravelled his process looking at the use of generative graphics combined with sound collage and field recordings to create narrative fictions from the materials of pure abstraction. He touched on his use of expanded projections systems, such as planetarium domes and large screen configurations, to create hypnotic and immersive live experiences.
