Maker of playful experiences with technology and people

Coral Manton

Collaborative project with audio artist Leon Trimble and Gravitational Wave Researchers/Astrophysicists at the University of Birmingham LIGO Research Department. For this project I created a visualisation of a gravity wave/spacetime ripple using LIGO research data. I then live coded a modulation of the wave using GLSL Shaders. I coded the shader in TouchDesigner which reacted to a desktop Laser Interferometer developed by the researchers. The performance was with Leon Trimble who played a modular synthesiser the researchers linked to the Interferometer. The performance of this piece was at Future Everything Festival 2018. I am developing the visual element of the performance for a 360 dome at Lunar Festival 2018.
