Arcs and Angles from Different Skies

[mad]

Different Skies is an annual meeting of electronic musicians in Acrosanti in the Arizona desert. Their music takes two forms -- precomposed material for debut performance and improvisation. The week-long workshop is designed to help usually solitary electronic musicians gain connections and form a community.

These performances are accompanied by visuals developed by viviographer David Tristram. He uses a combination of 3D computer graphics and prerecorded video to enhance the often serene and wandering music with stunning colorful visuals.

The DVD "Arcs and Angles" is comprised of recordings of 8 improvisations from the 2004 workshop, each accompanied by improvised visuals from David Tristram.
