JACINTHE.XYZ started with a simple constraint: Using one single ordinary subject as an immersive piece starting point, focusing on its visual properties and work from there. Like a classic still life, but in space and time. So I started creating using one unique point cloud file : Jacinthe.xyz
JACINTHE.XYZ explores the full color palette of one single 3D photogrammetric scan of a group of hyacinths sitting on my window in Vernon, France, back in early 2021. Using real-time modulations and distortions the goal was to push the available material characteristics into different visual rhythms creating an abstract narrative taking advantage of the whole dome canvas.
The visuals were first captured in one live session using a midi controller to fully modulate the scan. Then the talented french musician Clément Putegnat worked on the soundtrack from the visuals, then recorded one single live clarinet/looper improvisation session.
To close the creative loop I captured a final live visual session based on Clément's soundtrack.
