The second performance of the Qualcomm Institute's IDEAS season will feature this audio-visual work by composer and UC San Diego Ph.D. student Paul Hembree from the Department of Music. This performance of Hembree's Generative Audio-Visual Media Using Biological Metaphors will feature a series of audio-visual works indebted to computational models of natural phenomena. The artists have employed a select group of models chosen for their empathetic resonance with biological and often distinctly musical behaviors in pursuit of visceral and communicative intermedia experiences. The models, including flocking algorithms and cellular automata, will be used in both live and fixed-media works, reacting to the improvisatory gestures of performers, or coaxed into alignment with a pre-composed plan.

Paul Hembree is a composer and Ph.D. student in the Music department at UC San Diego. His work explores the boundaries between the perceptual categories of sonic materials and the processes that guide them, navigating what he calls “the space between organic and synthetic sounds in a search for uncanny or sublime hybrids.”
