Beat Boxing

The performance is driven by a sensor-augmented sandbag, positioning a boxer as a primary gestural controller within a trio. Utilizing embedded pressure sensors, physical impacts are translated into real-time data streams via Max/MSP, triggering and modulating sound synthesis processes in real time.

This setup allows the boxer to function as a rhythmic participant, engaging in an improvisational and mediated “call-and-response” among three sound artists.

The boxing act and the vertical sandbag resembling vertical buildings, serve as a metaphor for the tension between the human agency and the abused urban site.
