one minus one (Live AV)

// Audiovisual performance using Touchdesigner and Ableton Live

The audiovisual performance explores our connection to nearby spaces and how they evolve over time. It's an experimental piece that blends ideas and textures, creating a mix of ambient and glitch elements. The performance invites the audience to reflect on their relationship with familiar surroundings and experience a dynamic fusion of calming and disruptive visuals and sounds.

The first part of the show relies on real time 3D generated textures, created from personal photos that ilustrate some of the spaces inhabited by the artist, during the last 5 years living abroad. For the second act, diferent squares and alleys of the Carmen neighbourhood, in Valencia, were scanned through photogrammetry, providing several point cloud models with strong noise and erratic aesthetics, that are manipulated during the performance. Huge thanks to Mina Cobo for the long late-night walks discovering the city center and for her modelling role in the project.

The piece tries to bring the audience close to a sense of belonging, by exposing physical unexplored sites, their transformations and how we perceive this evolution.
