ELEMENTS II
Audiovisual Work | Screening
ELEMENTS II was a cooperation work of French composer Paul Clouvel and video artist Michaela
Schwentner. According to the structure of the electro-acoustic composition the structure of the video
work is very minimalistic—it is computer generated and consists only of geometrical forms in black and
white, accompanied by sound-synchronised flickering dots. The single elements are modulated by
sound-input and change their positions and/or appearance according to certain sounds or sound
arrangements.
