Max is one of our foundation languages in the School of Arts Media and Engineering. It allows us to explore everything from projection mapping to NIME and hybrid performance. We use custom-built and existing interfaces – always with an eye to the future of musical performance, looking at questions of gesture, morphology and the audience-performer link.

Since Juilliard students are very accomplished instrumentalists and composers, the same immersive creativity comes naturally to them when using Max. I like to facilitate a practical approach to Max, which is useful in performance situations on stage.

Espongina is a digital instrument made of water and two carved wooden bowls. Waterproof piezos pick up vibrations from movement and physical contact with the wood. These vibrations are processed and mapped through Max to different parameters that generate and shape sounds throughout the performance.

The piece gives a history lesson of the United States through the rhetoric of its leaders. I used Max to generate the initial data for the work and to create a dynamic layout of the eyecharts. I ran statistics on the text directly as well as generated SVG files using the js object based on pre-visualizations of the work using the Jitter OpenGL objects.

The 58-speaker system is hidden and includes 32 amplifiers, 3 soundboards and one main computer running Max. Since the opening in 2010, artists have created works in which no equipment or technology would distract the visitor from a clear vision of the architecture.
