From Byron Westbrook:
"CORRIDORS is a multi-channel audio/video environment that uses amplifiers, speakers and video projections strategically placed within a performance space. It was originally developed as a distribution sytem for improvised guitar feedback and has evolved over the last three years into composed works using a myriad of sound sources through the system, which is also now customized for the individual works. The project emphasizes how redistributed energy of sound and light in space alters one's perception. Audio elements consist of either guitar feedback processed live, pre-recorded instrumental performances or sounds from nature. These recordings are pre-processed to reduce the sounds to the pure energy of the source material (as opposed to resembling the source). They are then redistributed live through the performance space via multi-channel system with additional processing to cater to the composition and space. Video elements function as sources of light. Following the audio concept, the video sources are processed to reduce identification of form, object and location to abstract light thus highlighting the essential energy and movement."
