We are trying to visualize rhythms produced on stage and by the audience.
This is a very cool project that clearly responds to audience interaction- I was impressed at how much of a difference it showed when people were clapping. When everyone was trying to make a beat at once, it got somewhat chaotic, and the patterns became less obvious. I think the performance itself could have benefited from more guidance so that the patterns are more clearly visualized. Another area for taking this further would be color- right now it seems to just shift between yellow, cyan, and magenta. You could use the colors to represent other aspects of the sound, like pitch (maybe stomping could have a different color from clapping).
I really like this project. It is very creative of you to visualize sound sequences which can be made by the audience. I would suggest that you try to make the the patterns more diverse. For example, you can incorporate different shapes such as circular and square ripples. Overall great work!
I was amazed by the idea of incorporating two sense, sound and sight. I really enjoyed the procedure of creating an audio with the rest of class and see what the animated pattern is, especially when I had a different rhythm from others. This performance invites a direct participation and the principle is easy to follow.
You lead a curious exploration of rhythm with wide audience participation. The visuals displayed on large screen are stunning. It was very innovative two combine senses the way you did, so that class members too had a role in you performance piece.
