Geso (live visuals - Spain) form a Berlin based trio of visual music improvisation. Each of them has been experimenting with different techniques combining organic and digital elements, and the overlap of their works has the purpose of finding the perfect synch between audio and visual language, digital and organic at the same time. An audiovisual trip where hearing is seeing and vice versa. The trio uses improvisation as a playground where the music is not written on paper, but created in real time by the interaction and feedback of all the parts in play."
+  description: "The talk is a presentation of the conception and the process that lead Pablo (Geso) along Marie and Kamil to start this audio-visual project, an experiment within the following concepts: visual music, improvisation, free jazz, experimental music, synesthesia. Pablo understands visuals as just one more instrument in a band, so the Morpheme performances are pure live generated music and visuals, where all the players are part of feedback system. "

-        <span class="fsl">Kovács/O’Doherty have worked as a collaborative duo since 2011.Their work combines elements of durational and time-based art, minimalist sound and composition, video, and movement. This work is frequently shaped by attempts to apply rigorous processes to simple but often-overlooked phenomena – they are interested in processes, sounds, and movements that come close to imperceptibility, and the ways in which this material can be transformed through layering, rhythm, pattern, and repetition. They are currently working on a new project for the Art + Technology Lab at LACMA, Los Angeles, for 2017, and their work has been presented by, among others, Serralves Museum of Contemporary Art (Porto), Digital in Berlin’s Kiezsalon series (Berlin), Sophiensaele (Berlin), Kunstkraftwerk (Leipzig), and Bakelit (Budapest). They live and work in Berlin.</span>

-        <span class="fsl">Humans are spatial creatures. We evolved to navigate complex environments and manipulate three dimensional objects. Yet our digital lives today are mostly confined to the thin rectangular space of a screen. We live in Flatland. Not only do touch screens restrict our hands to a form of glorified finger painting, but interactive systems in general haven’t made great use of our abilities for spatial reasoning and situation awareness. That is until now… Recent trends in augmented reality, connected objects, wearables electronics, and virtual assistants among others, show that technology is in the process of becoming increasingly distributed, spatial, embedded, and if we may say 'ubiquitous'.  Our physical world is merging with the virtual in new and unexpected ways. The future will be a complex layer cake of digital and physical elements rolled into one continuous connected experience; a world in which matter is programmable and computation is a construction material. What creative possibilities does ambient technology offer for artists and designers? </span>

Pablo understands visuals as just one more instrument in a band, so the Morpheme performances are pure live generated music and visuals, where all the players are part of feedback system. </span>
