20 Hz observes a geo-magnetic storm occurring in the Earth's upper atmosphere. Working with data collected from the CARISMA radio array and interpreted as audio, we hear tweeting and rumbles caused by incoming solar wind, captured at the frequency of 20 Hertz. Generated directly by the sound, tangible and sculptural forms emerge suggestive of scientific visualisations. As different frequencies interact both visually and aurally, complex patterns emerge to create interference phenomena that probe the limits of our perception.
*warning: there's some flickering in the second half. possibly seizure / Kundalini inducing.

BREATH. TAKING.
Amazing how "otherworldly" this world can be. Any possibilities for making use of this? There were a lot of circular, cyclical patterns that could fit somewhere...
Not too sure how difficult it would be to choreograph, but it would be sweet to have circular set pieces, like Brendan's idea of the circular curtain in the center, appear / expand / contract in time with the music or sound effects.
Whoa! I don't know exactly what this is, despite reading the description several times (brain?? where are you?) but it looks insanely cool!
It was be wild to try to use something that looks like this in projections and/or choreography...
