Max For Live Devices

Here is the online repository for all the M4L devices developed during the work on the installation.

MidiLights

Midilights are controlled using the DMXIS interface.

Lowest note (bank) is C-2 (Ch15?); Ch16 for Presets?

Brainchild is a trio which brings together three different, but unexpectedly compatible instruments. While the saxophone is associated with jazz music, the cello with the classics, and computer music with the cutting edge of modern music, the three melt together into a chamber music ensemble nothing like its individual elements.

TesserAkt

2022-02-09

The TesserAkt library is a collection of MaxForLive devices designed for real-time midi manipulation. These devices were developed in the context of the Fraktale Lab, within the artistic research project Atlas of Smooth Spaces (FWF 640) at the University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna.

Dieses Werk wurde mit freundlicher Unterstützung des österreichischen Bundesministeriums für Kunst, Kultur, öffentlicher Dienst und Sport realisiert.
