Multimodality by TAEX

TAEX is inviting you to join a special art event at London Digital Art Week celebrating the work of artist and musician Massimo Magee.

Staged at Cromwell Place in London, the digital art exhibition is centred around the installation 3 Colours in 3 Modes, a group of three pieces from Audiovisual Digital Abstraction Collection by Massimo Magee, curated by Aurora Garrison. They are designed to sound together, live in the room. Each of the pieces, in its audio reading, has a slightly different length, which over time alters and evolves the sonic image of the exhibition. The visual reading of each piece is presented on aluminium and digital screens by Muse Frame.

The event will feature a first-time live performance of a composition for string quartet by Massimo Magee called Quartet Derivation, which will be performed by Apartment House music ensemble. The perfomances will happen several times throughout the evening. Massimo will also perform live on the alto saxophone.

Massimo Magee is an artist, writer, and musician. He creates avant-garde digital art that challenges traditional perceptions and representations by interweaving sound and visuals into a single file. Magee's work as a recording artist on the esteemed New York label 577 Records has garnered him a dedicated following within the experimental music community.

Digital Art Week centres on bringing digital experiences to life in exciting spaces and iconic locations. Powered by NextGen technologies, we bring brand storytelling to life through experiential digital arts.
