Aaron Lee – Looking Outwards 10

“I am using 1 of my grace days for this late submission.”

Anders Lind is a great Swedish artist who actively uses computation to compose and perform music. Also a creative director at the Umea University, he composes music mainly for orchestras, choirs, and various ensembles and solo performers.

For this blog post, I was mainly interested in his 2016 exhibition, Lines, which brings musical experience to the field of electronics or interactive technology. In this experimental exhibition, the lines are attached to either wall, floor or hung to ceiling with sensors that create pitch of sound when interrupted by human body. The scale of the exhibition also encourages the visitor to be creative about music making and corporate with others to create musical harmony.

No musical background is required to enjoy the program. The video also shows different group of people interacting, including children.
