An audiovisual event hosted by Create Digital Media within the HOPE conference at Hotel Pennsylvania.

"8-bit and robots and odd Max and Reaktor patches and custom visual software and visualizations of data packets and sound made from plants and mutant trumpets and gloves for DJing and laptop music…"

Synesthete performed an audiovisual set using two houseplants wired up with electrodes. Input from the plants was acquired with an Arduino based electronics project that sonified the signal as well as transferring it to the computer where it was converted to MIDI for further manipulation with Ableton Live.

Live Audio (Excerpt)

Also performing were: Ben Neill, Michael Una, Joshue Ott (superDraw), Ezekiel Honig, Paris Treantafeles, Don Miller (No Carrier), Joey Mariano (AnimalStyle), Anton Marini (vade), Mary Ann Benedetto, Peter Kirn, Bill Jones, and Roger Tsai.
