FORMS – STRING QUARTET

I chose to discuss the project FORMS – String Quartet. Created by Playmodes, ‘FORMS – String Quartet’ is a live multimedia performance for a string quartet, electronic music and panoramic visuals, in the field of visual sonification. The project originates from a real-time visual music score generator created by Playmodes, that is designed with a set of rules using graphic generation, driven by randomness and probability. The algorithm takes the resulting graphics which are transformed into sound using spectral synthesis algorithms. I think this project is very interesting due to the fact that my sister played in many string quartets as a violinist.
