Collaborative A/V Performance w/ Matthew Ryals

February 16, 2024

On Friday February 16, I performed a collaborative audiovisual set with Matthew Ryals at The Avalon Lounge in Catskill, NY. Matthew and I have collaborated before, so when I found out that he would be performing in the area, I eagerly joined the bill. Combining modular video synthesis and camera feedback, I was able to incorporate control voltage signal's from Matthew's audio synths, introducing synesthetic interaction between the sound and video.

Other performers included The Early from Philadelphia, and Friends Meeting, ambient duo project of Ben Seretan and M. Geddes Gengras. It was a lovely evening of dreamy experimental sound. At the end, The Early and Friends Meeting joined together for a rather epic jam. The show was also broadcast live on Wave Farm's WGXC.
