Yawn
In collaboration with Jam in Jubilee, supported by the Abbotsford Arts Council and Raven Brewery, I created an immersive visual experience for Yawn, a dream-pop project by artist and musician Julia McDougall. The project merged live music with real-time, audio-reactive generative visuals. The visuals were inspired by natural phenomena and biological simulations, evolving responsively to the music's rhythm, pitch, and intensity. This created an immersive backdrop that reinforced the performance's themes exploring "hope, resignation, and the tension between technology and nature."
Generative visuals for Yawn, a dream-pop project.
Technical Setup
TouchDesigner and Processing for real-time visual generation. Audio analysis drove reactive visuals through simulation of natural phenomena like fluid dynamics and particle systems, with multi-layer visual blending.
