PERFORMANCE

redUniform is an audiovisual performance suite in 3 parts. Each part plays a different trick on the audience and puts forth the questions of 'if' and 'how' have been the music and graphics are being controlled. The Concept, music, visuals and electronics were developed during Olofsson’s residency. All the sounds and graphics are generated in real-time using SuperCollider, and he built his own wireless sensor system hidden inside a red costume.
