effervescent shadow bazaar
In December 2022, a collective of artists, designers, animators, and musicians at Carnegie Mellon University collaborated in the production of an evening-length immersive art and music experience that combined light and shadow animation, ambisonic 3D soundscapes, interactive video installations and electronic sensory devices. The two-hour event was presented in three parts at WQED Studios in Pittsburgh, PA, interweaving explorable interactive artworks with live music and computational art performances. A co-production of Carnegie Mellon University School of Art, School of Music, and IDeATe programs, the event featured artists and designers working in "Shadow Play" (School of Art/IDeATe) and "Electronic Logics && Creative Practice" (IDeATe) studios, as well as electronic sound artists and a low-brass ensemble, including members of the "Exploded Ensemble" (School of Music/IDeATe) and the "Tartan Tuba Band" (School of Music).
