Life at the witch trails

Abstract

Life at the witch trails is based on the idea of creating "living" structures through sound. Video material from x/y-stereo displays visualizes the phase changing from two-channel audio signals. The sound source is a special audio composition that can not be realized without direct visualization. It contains full-on, sound-dependent motion dynamics and forms complex "cathode-ray objects", which allow direct (not delayed) visual access to the smallest details of the composition. The representation is not limited by the pictures-per-second time frame of television and computer technology. The interconnection of the aural and visual senses arises in an immediate way, and the visualization of sound obtains a new meaning.
