This piece will be performed at the Rundgang 08 exhibition at the school of Art & Design, Kassel. Follow this link » to see other works of this exhibition.



patashnik a/b is an audio/visual live drawing performance. The two parts of the piece tell a story about an uncertain voyage into space. Without any prepared video material the story is told in figurative images and abstract visuals, combined with a soundtrack of granulated field recordings and electronic music tracks.

All images and animations are created live on a graphics tablet with our completely rewritten animation software NervousInk3. We're working on a public version, which will be available soon for Mac/ Windows.

The "Loop" animation effect is partly inspired by Golan Levin's Yellowtail (1998).

Patashnik (a + b) is a two-part performance about travelling, created with the custom built realtime animation software NervousInk. It tells about a journey into an unknown world. NervousInk works like a visual instrument, controlled by intuitive drawing gestures. The abstract lines, strokes and areas in black and white are combined with a sound layer of field recordings, sound effects and melodic fragments.

The event is part of the Rotlichtkonzert series presented by vonm.de and will take place at the fluctuating images gallery in Stuttgart. March 30, 2008, 8pm

To get an idea of the animation, please check our or previous project Gestures on Sound
