EKO

Maotik & Ezra · interactive tools for the stage · 2014 · MIRA Festival, Barcelona

Our role Creation and control tools, real-time software, tracking.

A complete immersive audiovisual environment for the stage, by visual artist Maotik and beatboxer Ezra. Both improvise with real-time technologies: “EKO is a particle that lives and dies. EKO reveals architecture and space.”

We built the interactive tools that tighten the dialogue between the two artists during the show: Ezra’s voice feeds Maotik’s image, and the image answers him, live.

First presented as a work in progress at MIRA Festival, Barcelona, 2014.
