Atlas Algorave
An exploration into the beauty of design and code.
An Interactive Art Installation that prompts people walking by to take a moment to connect with their surroundings. Walk through the dangling lit up clouds and interact with the floor.

Concept
Algorave, an Algorithmic Rave, is a groundbreaking livecoding performance that seamlessly merges music and visuals through the power of code. By harnessing the capabilities of Sonic Pi for music generation and Hydra for visual manipulation, this avant-garde experience transforms lines of code into an immersive, dynamic, and ever-evolving audio-visual spectacle. The beauty of this concept is that I can dynamically change the music and art in a few lines of code.

Sonic Pi for Audio
Sonic Pi serves as the sonic canvas for the Algorave, enabling livecoding of music using the Ruby programming language.
The performer crafts intricate beats, melodies, and textures on the fly, manipulating parameters and introducing new elements with a few lines of code. The real-time nature of Sonic Pi allows for instant experimentation, fostering a unique and unpredictable auditory journey for the audience.

Hydra for Visuals
Hydra, a livecoding environment for visuals, complements Sonic Pi by generating captivating and responsive graphics. The visuals, driven by algorithms, form a symbiotic relationship with the music, creating a multisensory experience that transcends traditional artistic boundaries.

The heart of the Algorave lies in the livecoding aspect, where the artist becomes a performer, crafting an immersive experience through code in real-time. The Algorave is not merely a performance; it is an exploration of the synergy between human creativity and computational algorithms. By blending livecoding, Sonic Pi, and Hydra, the artist invites the audience into an ever-changing, immersive realm where sound and visuals converge in an intricate dance of code. The Algorave transcends conventional artistic boundaries, providing a glimpse into the limitless possibilities when technology and creativity intersect on the live stage
