Hauschka with Rod Maclachlan
Bristol Proms, Bristol Old Vic
Marvel at the technically deft, music-metamorphosing German pianist/composer Hauschka, with whom I collaborated to create robotic camera and lens trickery to explore the inner wonders of his modified piano.
The remote-control camera jib arm was designed with a motorised wheel of lens filters such as prisms and diffraction gratings. All the visual effects are analogue – rotating prisms, mirrors, plastic tubing etc.
With thanks to Tom Morris (Bristol Old Vic), Qu Junktions (qujunktions.com) and Rusty Squid (rustysquid.org.uk/) for making this collaboration possible. Also performed at Athens Digital Art Festival.
