What was the dynamic like with the audience? How did they respond to the performer being backstage? Was there video? And why did you choose this method rather than manipulating prerecorded piano samples?
Love it, of course! Awesome work as always! (^_^)b

yeah, when I said projected, I meant that a video feed of the performance was being projected into the hall live, so they did see it. I didn't want to use prerecorded samples because I wanted this to be 100% completely live and improvised. In general, there was a feel of detachment I think. The audio was "synthetic", and the visual aspect of the performance was also filtered and framed via the lens of the camera. I positioned the camera so that people would have the most complete view of my screen/hardware/hands, and the piano, so they could see EXACTLY what was going on. Since electronic music at my school was somewhat enigmatic, I was hoping that by seeing the process from recording to manipulation, that people would be able to understand the underlying structure better. I can't vouch for performer/audience response etc since everyone will clap at the end, and tell you "good job" afterwards, but I think it went well. I can send you a video of the performance if you want...it'd be too big to post online though, I think. It would be a video of a video feed, and a digital recording of a digital recording ;)

the suspense is killing me. tell me the rest of the story!
that's what this does to me - great eery city of lost children sounding thematic piece.
its creepy in a "ooh i can't wait to see what happens next" sort of way...!
i feel kinda like i'm approaching a weird dream sequence in a movie that is a bit dark....
