20:30 Transfer. Concert for two brains, A.Janicki, F.Araszkiewicz, HiQ
Performance is based on scanning the brain waves of composers-performers: Aleksander Janicki and Franciszek Araszkiewicz. EEG transforms into a sound that creates a real-time image of a score for the musicians of the HiQ Formation. Brain performers measured at eight levels of frequency generate an interactive graphic layer. Sound parameters are the result of concentration, relaxation, eye movement and muscle tone. Each action is triggered by mental state and creates new sounds, creating a looped image.
