SYNCHRONICITY
2021

SYNCHRONICITY is an art experiment about sound and movement.

Using a generative sound system to create music, performers are able to generate unique sounds with their movements within a defined space.

Dancing in succession, every generated sound is the other performer's music to which they respond through movements. This pattern goes on for five cycles, resulting in a totality of 10 performances. The film ends with a global outcome of all the performances as a way to assess the similarity and thus, the level of synchronisation achieved by the performers after five cycles.

Ultimately, SYNCHRONICITY aims to understand the act of synchronisation as a connecting experience with others, and explores new ways of perceiving sound and movement by linking the two in an unusual manner.  

This film has been created as part of my art residency at SomaRumor II, the second South American sound art meeting.
