> Mutek Festival - Montreal Canada - May 30th 2002
>
> Atlantic Waves - A transatlantic internet live session performed by
Deadbeat
> in Montreal and Monolake in Berlin
>
> Over the last few years Robert Henke (Monolake) and Scott Monteith
> (Deadbeat) have developed a friendship almost entirely through
interactions
> in the digital domain, through various emails and audio file transfers.
> Although they shared the stage, performing individually, at the first
Mutek
> Micro event in February 2001, it seems rather fitting that their first
> collaborative performance should incorporate the technologies that allowed
> them to meet in the first place.
>
> Utilizing the graphical programming environment Max/MSP , Henke designed a
> custom performace application, incorporating several sequencers, sample
> players,and effects which can be controlled remotely over TCP/IP, as well
> as by a local performer.
>
> To make the interaction between Monteith and Henke visible for the
audience,
> their application is projected behind Monteith during the performance.
> Differnent colors are used to distinguish local and remote control,
allowing
> the audience to
> follow the interactions as well as the construction of the whole set.
>
> Playing with short percussive elements created by Monteith, the two will
> perform an improvised set of rythmic minimal textures, sure to please fans
> of there past individual works.
