Maurizio

1995

maurizio “Maurizio” is an interactive installation.
A television camera is connected to a computer. The television camera frames a square footboard. When the public tread on the footboard, the tvcamera notices the point where they are and transmit it to the computer, which projects an image on a screen and utters a sound by means of loudspeakers.
The surface of the footboard is divided into 16 points; each of them projects an image and utters a sound. The images are a mixture of blobs of colour and people on the footboard at that very instant; the loudspeakers utter sounds of breathing or of mechanism.
In the picture and in the video some dancers make a performance, interacting with the sounds.
