Zero Night is an audio-visual project by intermedia artists Snezhana Reizen (Rzeng) and Mike Iv, working in the fields of experimental electroacoustic music and generative visuals.
​
​​Inheriting a counting system of “Arabian Nights,” Zero Night would be that of an untold story.
Zero as an a-historic one, a parallel landscape, escaping grids, and mappings.​
​​​
The project dwells upon the ideas of cosmological chaos, the formation of the possible, and the transformation of the “real.”
Taking indeterminacy as a “Perpetuum mobile” for any structure, including those of the human psyche, we aim to create a fluid metastable flow, a “dynamic continuity of changeable quality.”
​​
Within this multimedia immersive system, we explore the metaphor of zero point as a limit that plays a generating role. Focusing on morphogenesis of audio-visual signals and elements, Zero Night operates on the intersection of concrete and abstract.
Sonically, it unfolds through a broad scope of approaches, from acousmatique procedures on magnetic fields, electricity discharges, radio, and feedback to improvisation with sound synthesis focusing on morphogenesis of audio signals and elements within/through a magnitude of the atmospheric tensions, polyrhythmic structures, shifts, systemic errors, glitches, overtones.
The resulting canvas of sonic movements is connected to generative visuals based on the transformation of elementary geometrical figures, leading them out of Euclidean space. These shifts are caused by programmed deformations in correlation with sound waves and their full spectrum, such as frequency, resonance, amplitude, etc. The amount and complexity of interferences spawn an unpredictable sequence of audiovisual mutations. The performance exists between predeterminedness and chance, creating a unique situation in which each moment contains the potential for the actualisation of a new event.
