Vox Humana invites you to a fusion of technology, art, and music celebrating the harmony between the ancient and the avant-garde. This event showcases the music of Carnegie Mellon University’s Exploded Ensemble, architectural video projections from Advanced ETB: Animation Studio: AI Generated Animation, and performance work from Advanced ETB: Digitally Mediated Performance.
Exploded Ensemble has crafted music for the pipe organ using code and custom software, breathing digital life into one of music's oldest instruments. Within the embrace of a beautiful acoustic space, these compositions are not merely played but experienced, as they interact with architecturally mapped video projections featuring AI-generated imagery. These visuals are tailored to complement and react to the unique architectural elements of the venue, creating a dynamic and immersive environment. Performance artists will improvise live, their movements and expressions influenced by the experimental music and its interplay with the physical space. Together, these elements promise a mesmerizing exploration of how digital innovation can expand the boundaries of traditional musical performance, creating a spectacle that is as thought-provoking as it is enchanting. Join us for an evening where the past and the future converge in a symphony of sights and sounds, offering a glimpse into the limitless possibilities of artistic expression.
