Revolving around a brief video of a dead leaf fluttering in the wind, coalesce; is a visual and auditory piece, inviting the audience to enter a world of evolution. The piece shifts as a living creature changing through life, beginning with lo-fi visuals and ambient sounds to a gradually more structured presentation. Ableton Live 10 was used to record and manipulate ambient sounds, vocals, and acoustic violin as performed by the composer. Max 8 code programmed for the project was then linked up to Live to generate and synchronize the manipulation of video effects and the auditory component.
