program note
Working in collaboration with the Little Artists League in Tokyo, Japan, a global-minded art organization devoted to fostering children’s creativity through process-oriented art, Aeroidio, a collaborative duo of Adam Vidiksis and Sam Wells, has developed a web application that transforms camera and gestural data from a mobile device, turning it into an interactive musical instrument that nearly anyone can play. BEEP, the Boyer College’s electronic music ensemble, will lead a community performance composed by Aeroidio that uses the software to transform hand drawings made in the moment. Only a smartphone is needed. All participants are encouraged and welcome to join the performance.
