"Retroism Now. Vinyl revival on the digital age" is a documentary made as an assignment for the module Digital Arts Documentary at the MSc Media and Arts Technology programme in March 2017 (Queen Mary University of London)
Blind Film is a soundscape developed as an assignment at the MSc Media and Arts Technology programme at Queen Mary University of London on December 2016.
This project explores the role of sound and music in storytelling as layers of information. A scene was designed to have three main components: text, sounds, and music. This scene was repeated three times to create a soundscape: a first time with only the text (speech), a second one with the text and sounds, and the third one with all the elements (text, sounds, and music).
This way, the same scene is repeated, but the elements that play on the scene are different. The intention of this structure is to create a progression in the amount of information offered to the audience, so to make more evident the differences between scenes.
This project was developed as an assignment at the MSc Media and Arts Technology programme at Queen Mary University of London on November 2016.
The Noisy Polka Dots is an audiovisual generative art project that explores the relationship between sound and colours. It was inspired by a technique called Generative Art, which refers to art pieces that have been created in whole or in parts autonomously by a computer. It has two sides that interact with each other, music and graphics, so at the end, the result will be an audiovisual piece that has been created with these two sides influencing each other.
The visual part of the project was developed in Processing, while the audio part was developed in Max/Msp/Jitter.
Tempo Machine was developed for the CruftFest assignment at the MSc Media and Arts Technology programme at Queen Mary University of London on November 2016.
This project is an application that plays a flamenco song, and allows the user to modify the speed and the rhythmic patterns of the song. The main object of the project is a plastic clock, which has all the sensors installed inside and acts as the input device of the system.
The sensors used in this project are an accelerometer and a potentiometer, which are connected to Arduino. It gets the readings of the sensors through the analogue pins. These readings are sent through serial communication to Max Msp, where the sensor’s readings are used.
In Max Msp, a guitar song is playing on the background, and depending on the sensor's readings, different rhythmic sounds will play with the guitar. The instruments available are drum box, heel-tapping, castanets and clapping.
