Swarm is an immersive, Biotechno, audiovisual performance envisioned by Colombian artist Juan Cortes and his group “Atractor” It takes an unconventional look at the complex structures of language between some insects that communicate through sound waves such fireflies, crickets and bees. The artist will transform the audio field recordings of these species recorded live in the Colombian mountains and through Arduino metamorphosing them into visually mesmerizing, immersive laser projections. The performance is enhanced by live electronic music developed by the artist and his team of engineers. This performance has been artistically directed by Asher Remy-Toledo director of HyphenHub.
