Commissioned by Music Tech Festival, May 2013 (also exhibited in collaboration with Martin Ware at Goldsmiths University, July 2013)
Stylus combines sound and vision in perfect synthesis. Simple looped patterns of visual music building to a complex and melodic kinetic sculpture where the conceptual resonance and counterpoint between image and sound are bonded in a way that the audio visual contract feels inevitable. As with other diasynchronic artworks, Stylus takes place in an immersive environment, but participants can walk all around the sculpture, taking an embodied journey of meditation as their senses become accustomed to the space. The first diasynchronic artwork in the round, Stylus is about sound, image and perception.
