An audio-visual moving image work documenting a live audiovisual performance at the Quob Festival, Cumbria.
O Maen documents a live audiovisual performance combining 3D Gaussian Splat scans of sacred stone circles rendered as audioreactive point clouds that respond in real time to a live soundscape. Accompanying the point cloud renders is filmed footage of the landscape and its stones.
The soundscape, composed entirely of site-specific lithic frequencies, was performed live. The audioreactive visual elements are generated by custom software instruments built in SuperCollider and Python.
The work sits at the threshold between an established moving image practice and live interactive audiovisual performance.
