Mirror Story

Mirror Story

 

Johnny created the visual and projection design for this new media opera at the Duderstadt Center in Ann Arbor.  With music composed by Alicyn Warren, the approach with Mirror Story was to support a highly narrative theatrical piece without the use of physical set design.  Instead, Mirror Story relied completely on high resolution 2K cyclorama projection.

Several of the movements included a special analog audio reactive component, achieved by attenuating musical FFT  samples into a high definition audio stream capable of driving a CRT monitor directly with sound (instead of a video signal).

 

 
 
 

Thanks go out Jacques Mersereau, the staff and crew of the Duderstadt Center for providing the fine documentation.
