Pierce Warnecke at MUTEK in Montreal, Canada

On June 3, 2016 assistant professor Pierce Warnecke and Matthew Biederman will push the limits of perceived reality at MUTEK in a new audiovisual performance that combines their far reaching artistic practices: in Perspection, multiple screens pulse in vivid colour and in black and white, geometric shapes projected using 3D tracking to create a single anamorphic image, all the while spatialized audio warps and whirs. Biederman and Warnecke aim beyond the disembodied effects of CGI and VR technology: screens shift into vital sculptural forms that live in sound-image relationships with each other, spurring audiences to experience the physical here-and-now of theatre space paired with augmented reality, to become hyper aware of the act of perception itself.
