Video controls for ‘Israel in Egypt’ by Händel

Wisse Stolk asked me to help him with a project he was doing with Cantiamo Amersfoort. He made visuals to accompany their performance of Händel’s “Israel in Egypt” and he needed a way to control the live playback of the visuals using four projectors at the same time. After talking the project through I made a program in Max/MSP/Jitter so he could control up to 26 movies using keyboard commands to start/stop/fade-out et cetera.

On the 29th of October they had an awesome performance with a choir, an orchestra and live visuals controlled by Wisse.
