Fox’s soundscapes and images immerse the senses

A live audiovisual experience created by Australian artist and composer Robin Fox continues the National Film and Sound Archive’s recent visual and audial attack upon our senses, in the best possible way.

Premiered at Unsound Krakow and toured internationally, Fox’s work uses custom-built hardware to craft immersive, simultaneous live electronic music and laser projections.

The work, Triptych, unites Fox’s two creative passions: electronic music and audiovisual mechanical synaesthesia in a marriage of sound and light.

The resulting “audiovisual synchresis” is set within the soundscapes and raw voltage glitch composition that distinguish Fox’s work.

Triptych has been influenced by the pioneering work of Polish émigré artist Stanislaus Ostoja-Kotkowski, who spent decades creating instruments and installations that treated sound and light as equal parts of a whole, mapped to each performance venue.

Robin Fox’s Triptych Live at the NFSA, Arc Cinema, October 18 and 19.
