Oscar van Leest presents: Apparatus
Presented by The Grey Space
For the past six months, Oscar van Leest has been deeply engaged in the development of Apparatus: an open-ended, multidisciplinary project in which movement, space, and sound engage in a complex exchange.
At the core of this work are wearable instruments he has designed, capable of measuring spatial and kinetic data through integrated sensors. This data is then translated into sound using both hardware and software systems.
During the research week, van Leest collaborates with performers to explore various setups, choreographies, and approaches to improvisation.
The findings from this collaborative process are shaped into a performance, which will be presented to the public at the end of the week.
Oscar van Leest (1994) is an Amsterdam-based sound artist, musician, and sound designer. His practice investigates the intricate relationships between sound and spatial context, and how these are perceived through a diverse range of technical tools.
From custom software and electronics to electro-acoustic devices and modular synthesis.
