Three Monochromes : Red/Green/Blue (E)

Here is the recent & upcoming playlist of 'Three Monochromes', a sonic reiteration by my good friend and longtime collaborator Stefaan Quix. The visual part of his performance builds on a piece of software that I wrote upon his request.

The software outputs one of the respective rgb monochromes and lets the musician manipulate its visual transformations over time, parallel to the aural dimension. It was done in Macromedia Director, before the days of the Flash-hype, and is written in Lingo.
