Project
I want to explore Samuel Becketts 1981 televised play 'Quad' which consists of four actors in the colours red, blue, white and yellow fixed in a loop. Each actor is accompanied by a sound, which creates no rhythm or melody. The actors walk in sync, and are bound together by invisible lines.
To do this:
Explore ways to make the bodies movement trigger sounds (different sound for each person) I have seen people use a Kinect 2 running with MaxMSP to accomplish this. I will have to access four different coloured robes, all capable of producing a high contrast with the background.
