Joaquin Jimenez

Commissioned to be presented at Bauhaus University in Weimar, Germany for the celebration of the 100 years of Bauhaus School of Design.

1938 is an audiovisual, generative, real-time performance about the bombings in Barcelona during that year. For this piece, I decided to reflect on the experiences of the persons who lived this, or similar events. Anybody who has experienced a shocking event can ponder the sounds and images in this work. To accomplish this task, I developed a Max/MSP/Jitter patch that helps me to process both audio and video signals to generate the whole piece without pre-recorded arrangements. All manipulation and creation happen in real-time.

Presented also at: “Con el oido en el recuerdo” on December 11th, 2018 at Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Fundación Phonos, Barcelona. (

1938 is also part of the collective exhibition “Mit Dem Ohr Der Erinnerung” (With The Ear In The Memory) at Galery SK, Solingen, Germany.
