Real-time cartographic improvisations using projected, manipulated digital maps by Eric Theise, in collaboration with Ed Osborn’s real-time wrangling of live electronics and saturated field recordings. A visual wash of street grids, land masses, water bodies, and curiosities from built and natural environments. Resonant openings and switchbacks. Orphaned labels. Free-floating symbology. Difference tones and untethered drones. Saturated colors and the subtlest of tints. Jittery zooms, pans, and traversals. Noisy apertures and sonic fissures.
