A storytelling spectacle, based on Lewis Caroll’s “Alice in wonderland/beyond the mirror”, presented at “La Fureur de Lire” Festival in Geneva. Presented on Friday 25th and Saturday 26th September 2009, at Théâtre Pitoeff.
The project, organized by storyteller Deirdre Foster, centered on the illustrations by Thomas Perrino, which I was re-mixing and projecting in almost realtime (I used a 5 minute video buffer). I adapted for this performance a custom MaxMSP/Jitter patch that was used earlier this year for the e-Creativity festival in Cathgodam, India. Live control occurs via the Korg Nano-Kontroll MIDI interface.
Credits: Deirdre Foster, Ragnhild A. Mòrch, Casilda, Cathy Sarr, Franco Rau (Storytelling), Thomas Perino (Illustrations), Manuel Schmalstieg (Video). Commissioned by La Fureur de Lire 2009.
