This was first installed for the Seismic Dance Event in Austin, TX., and will again be installed for the upcoming 2022 Bee Cave Buzzfest.
The entire Central Plaza became a large-scale art and sound installation with architectural projection mapping, immersive multichannel surround sound and motion-based lighting design, original electronic music compositions, and choreographed performances featuring light-reactive props and costumes.
My organization, dadaLab, was the lead artistic and curatorial team on the project. (https://www.dadalab.art/)
Additionally, I created and mapped all the video content used in the main stage performance, as well as designing the 10.2 channel immersive audio system.
Many wonderful organizations were involved in this production including the Bee Cave Ars Foundation, dadageek (dadageek.com), and The Department of Arts and Entertainment Technologies at the University of Texas in Austin.
The event featured a large-scale, multi-projection video system, 10.2 channel immersive audio system, and custom generative graphic content created by the dadaLab team (https://www.dadalab.art/), a 10 channel music composition by Lyman Hardy of Rolling Ryot (rollingryot.net), lighting design by Matt Smith of UT Austin's Department of Arts and Entertainment Technologies, and flow artist performances organized by Dalton Sessumes of Mindworks (mindworksarts.com/).

From Holodeck:
Utilizing self-designed, homemade technology as a primary composition tool, Austin-based IDM producer and multi-media artist pulseCoder returns with the wrenching new single “Tire Fire Nightmares.” Known for live performances featuring repurposed arcade controllers to operate glitched out electronics synced up with a strobing light show, pulseCoder’s innovative sound design and visuals are an unforgettable hyper-stimulating sensory immersion.
The relentless booming kick drum on “Tire Fire Nightmares” provides a foundation for morphing synth tones and industrial percussion to burst into complex melodies and chaotic drum breaks. pulseCoder’s attention to detail is balanced by his fascinating drive for experimentation, offering an intense dose of avant modernism on the bold new track “Tire Fire Nightmares.”
