Milieux Institute, Milieux Learning Atelier EV 11.425

Join Post Image and the Immersive Storytelling Studio for an immersive workshop led by intermedia composer and pianist Jarosław Kapuściński.ABOUT THE WORKSHOP:In this workshop participants will delve into the VR project, Point Line Piano. This workshop offers a unique opportunity to explore 18 different immersive environments, each designed to redefine your experience of music, visuals and gestural interaction. As participants create their own audiovisual flows, we will discuss the principles behind the interactive architecture of each environment and their unique pathways. The focus will be on understanding the music-like narrativity of the project, moving beyond traditional text-based frameworks to explore how audiovisual elements come together to tell a different kind of story.Point Line Piano is a VR project that reimagines the composition, performance, and reception of piano music by fusing its modes of creating, playing, and listening. As you interact with it, your ears, eyes, and hands act in concert. You start by drawing lines freely in the space around you, sparking musical notes that are notched as points on the lines as you draw them. These notes quickly accumulate, forming distinct melodic phrases and rhythms, while the computer generates an intricate audiovisual dance all around you. The work enables a spatial and full-body experience of abstraction not found in any other medium. In a live concert setting it can also be used as an audiovisual instrument.<a href="http://puscinski.com/works/point-line-piano/" title="http://puscinski.com/works/point-line-piano/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">More about Point Line Piano.</a>ABOUT JAROSŁAW KAPUŚCIŃSKI:Jarosław Kapuściński is a Polish-born intermedia composer and pianist.
