Title
MirrorFugue iii: conjuring the recorded pianist
Abstract
The body channels rich layers of information when playing music, from intricate manipulations of the instrument to vivid personifications of expression. But when music is captured and replayed across distance and time, the performer's body is rarely present. MirrorFugue conjures the recorded performer at the piano by combining the moving keys of a player piano with life-sized projection of the pianist's hands and upper body. Inspired by reflections on a lacquered grand piano, MirrorFugue evokes the sense that the virtual pianist is playing the physically moving keys. This video tells two stories of interactions across space and time mediated by MirrorFugue. One presents a great concert broadcasted across the world, where a young pianist learns by playing along. The other depicts a woman who plays a duet with her childhood self.
