IOM – AIM is a “state of the art” artistic research project by LOOS, investigating the design and realization of an interactive improvisation machine, an “orchestra” or “environment” consisting of computers, speakers, projectors, microphones, sensors, cameras, audience (as data input) and human improvisers. During Rewire, LOOS will present “Communication and Flow”, a theme that will raise questions about essential qualities of improvisation, like mimesis, adaptation, trust, unpredictability, surprise, destabilization and risk taking. IOM-AIM is an idea and concept by Peter van Bergen (PhD candidate at the conservatoire of Brussel and the Vrije Universiteit in Brussel) and is developed by software programmer Johan van Kreij.
