Hello!
I'm Andrés, and I'm very pleased to send my first email to the LAU list.
I don't know why I was not part of it before, but after the great
LAC2015 I needed it.
As some of you might remember, I had the pleasure to perform at the
Linux Sound Night (it was also my first ever live performance), under
the name of Vagabundo Barbudo. I have just edited a video about it
(thanks Rui and Javi!), which you can see here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=28po8oxtfH4.
The music is 100% made with free software. For production I use
QTractor, Hydrogen, Ardour, usually the Calf plugins and a little bit of
SuperCollider. If you are interested, you can find all the music in
www.vagabundobarbudo.com, as well as in
soundcloud.com/vagabundobarbudo.
All audiovisual material is released under cc-by-sa.
The automatic lighting is provided by RTML, a small program I'm
developing for SuperCollider. It takes audio inputs, analyses the audio
in real-time according to low- and mid-level musical features, and
outputs OSC messages, from which I control the stage fixtures with
another small script. The code can be found at
github.com/andresperezlopez/RTML, although it has still some small
issues. I expect to document and finish it soon - I will announce it
here anyway. Please feel free to use it for whatever you want.
The set is more cohesive with the different camera angle and the
explanation about your RTML app. I see you have a lot going on at the same
time.
Good to see that you have tuned the system so there are not audible
dropout and you can still get around the stage.
I can see this set going down well in the performance art festival
circuit. I think a crazy costume would add nicely to the "Performance Art"
aspect. It would be well received in Korea, Japan and Taiwan. You could
put together a promo video and reach out to some of the arts festivals
over there. Australia and NZ markets would also be a good place to look if
you wanted to perform farther afield.
