L2Ork in Performance: Rain featuring Boys & Girls Satellite Orchestra @ VT 04-09-2011

A performance of Rain composition featuring 4th and 5th graders from the Boys & Girls Club Satellite Laptop Orchestra of Roanoke, VA and L2Ork. Performed on April 9th 2011 at Virginia Tech. Children's involvement is a culmination of a semester-long program L2Ork has conducted in collaboration with the Boys & Girls Club of Roanoke, VA with an aim to integrate music education with the core STEM disciplines (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math), as part of the K-12 experience.

Rain incorporates networked cross-pollination of instruments where a single "hit" percolates through other instruments' speakers in a random, yet controlled fashion. While in this recording the spatial component is difficult to discern, it plays a pivotal role in providing a rich spatial variety.

NB: Due to a faulty camera setting, footage at times goes out of focus.
