Iron Bird
Film2021
A multilayered collaborative film concerned with the plight of migrant factory workers in southern China. The gestures of a solo percussionist influence live electronic music and video processing.
This project is inspired by the poem of the same title by Chinese poet Zheng Xiaoqiong (b. 1980). The percussionist’s performance is accompanied by electronic music and visual processing generated by an interactive system that responds to her expressive hand movements, tracked by a MUGIC® motion sensor.
Production date: June 2021.
