OverWatch Rachel Casey, Guy Schofield 2010 Live Audio/Visual Performance OverWatch is an audio/visual performance combining real-time 3D projections with a live musical score. Inspired by silent Expressionist cinema of the 1920s but operating as the diametric opposite of a silent movie, OverWatch presents a scenario where the improvised musical performance controls the lighting, cameras and action, using the output of musical instruments to direct the piece. Led by a live performance by electronic musicians The Turing Test, OverWatch presents an empty and eerie world viewed through a vast and labyrinthine network of surveillance cameras. Populated only by bizarre monuments and abandoned machinery, OverWatch takes the viewer into a world where human agency has withered and vanished, leaving only the remnants of industrial processes and failed experiments. In the world of OverWatch, augmented dogs forever pursue intruders, ravens watch clockwork cars cruise the empty streets and observatories collect power from the night sky. www.myspace.com/theturingtestmusic (return to exhibition listing)
