On The Marchライブ・イベント 日本語 info

On The March (オン・ザ・マーチ)とは、作家シャンテル・マーティンがデザインした東京アートビートの第3弾限定Tシャツの名前。シャンテルはTシャツについて、「東 京を歩いてみると、いろんな形や大きさをした建物や動物や人々に出くわして、まるで誰かがピースを間違ったまま構わず完成させちゃった巨大なジグソーパズ ルみたいだ。それなのに、何故かそれは完成された一つの絵に映って見える。東京はまさにそんな場所。」と語る。リリース後、シャツデザインの原画を見せて ほしい、というリクエストが彼女のもとに殺到したのを受け、シャンテルは誰にでも解釈、そしてダウンロードできる方法で公開した。
そして「On The March リミックス、TABストーリー・続」と題するビデオで世界中のファンに、自由自在に原画を再構成し、カスタマイズし、切り抜き洋服やアニメーションに取り 入れたて想像を膨らますよう呼びかけた。今回はこの結果を祝い、公開するライブ・イベント。シャンテル自身がデザインした限定版リミックス・シャツも公 開、40枚販売されます。

ライブ・ミュージック: Fizz, Coppe, Verena, Yayameme
ライブ・ビジュアル: On The March Remixed Artists Snz, David Roy, Eric Uhlich, Shantell Martin
ファンキー・ビート・ダンス: Markus D On The March website

呼びかけの結果は On The March website でもご覧になれます.

The Chirps of Marching Birds Remix

Click To Enlarge Image !!!!

(London)

Remix and description by: Matthew Plummer-Fernandez
After examining Shantell's illustration I noticed some faintly visible birds flying in the distance, drawn in the same style that most people draw distant birds; stretched out 'm's. I wanted to know what their chirps sounded like so I converted the image of two bird examples into sounds, taking their X and Y position values to be time and frequency values, and the darkness of the pen markings to be the Volume value. The bird shapes actually translate into artificial bird chirps that you can now listen to when you see them flying around Shantell's pictures. The image I made is a 3-dimensional Time, Volume, Frequency graph of the chirp sounds; as expected they translate back into bird shapes.
