A Rocco Din
2004

In which an accordion scores its own digital dissection. A Rocco Din is an anagram of accordion (of course) and the piece is similraly a cut up and re-structuring of an image of an accordion found on the web. As with Quadrangle the frequency/pitch of the notes also controls the manipulation of the images except here its more oom-pah than modernist abstract. Each note corresponds to the dynamics of a particular digital manipulation, so as the melody rises and falls the image is twisted, tumbled and reinvented.

Screened at: Lux Exposure (2004), Exploding Cinema (2005), VideoLisboa (2005), Berlin Videonale (2006), Memorial Art Gallery, Hastings (2009).
