BUSK Project London - Documentary (HD)

BUSK is a site-specific audio-visual work which examines the recontextualisation of sound through an improvised performance composed solely of sounds and images sourced from various London street musicians and performers.

Each sound sample triggers the playback of its corresponding visual footage that is then projected onto the performer's chest in order to alert the audience to the sound's origin.

While the work is interested in examining the aforementioned themes, emulating a traditional busking performance and thus sonically and visually entertaining the audience is central to BUSK's success.

@bimbusfast - thanks for the positive feedback. I used Modul8 for the project.

hi, how do you make the MPC trigger video and audio at the same time. When I import a video file, there are no editing options. I can only selected the audio waveform and loop, separate region, ect... but I just don't understand how you accomplished this. I'd really appreciate some feedback. thanks. awesome video, thanks for posting!
