INFERNO is a dramatic journey through the blazes around the globe to raise awareness about forest fires, not only in the Amazon but, for many reasons, across the globe. An audiovisual performance coded live, fetching both archived and real time data of the fires around the world from NASA database and their Near Real Time API. The main performance is coded in the Processing environment, in REPL/Hot Swap mode for changes on the fly without the need to recompile the sketch on each change, and it includes some customizations (GLSL shaders, data fetching algorithms…) and it communicates on the fly with Max/MSP and Ableton Live for the sounds and music.
The video documents the presentation at ICLC 2020 in Limerick, Ireland. Artist website.
