Optical Machines

Optical Machines is a performance by Rikkert Brok(image) and Maarten Halmans(sound). They work with self-made projectors especially designed for playing loops. With these they generate interfering patterns and abstract animation. The various images and light sources are generated, manipulated and mixed live on stage. Interaction between image and sound is achieved with build in sensors. The sensors provide a signal to control several (analogue)synthesizers.
