Jean Detheux - "...lilac shrieks and scarlet bellowings..."
Jean Detheux - "...lilac shrieks and scarlet bellowings..." what a great title - posting latest news on Jean Detheux's visual music work "...lilac shrieks and scarlet bellowings..." is a film in 6 movements, based on related texts of E. E. Cummings that focus on themes of nature and the cycle of life. The sonic material, created by Mikel Kuehn mikelkuehn.com/, is derived from manipulated environmental sounds and the recitation of Cummings texts by soprano Deborah Norin-Kuehn. The images were created first (the idea was to create a life in 4 parts, followed by a "recollection" of that life, as if at the moment of death, in the 5th and final movement).

Topological Slide - Michael Scroggins - Stewart Dickson
Michael Scroggins - Immersive VR and Absolute Animation Art and Virtual Environments Project "Mathematicians often describe the nature of certain topological surfaces by describing what it would be like to "take a walk" on the surface. The Topological Slide uses immersive virtual reality technology to provide this type of direct sensual experience. "The 'rider' will wear a head mounted display enabling an interactive wide-angle stereo view of a three-dimensional space. The space will consist of a model of a topological surface to which the platform is bound and upon which it is free to slide. The 'rider' may traverse the model's surface by leaning in the direction in which she desires to move. The amount of lean in a given…
