Abstract : CatroNome ( screen version) shows 99 Maneki-Neko beckoning arms on three screens starting their movement synchroniously and slowly fading out. It can be seen as reminiscence of Ligeti's Poème symphonique but leaves spaces for mor assoziations
CatroNome( physical istallation version) Besides the triptych video-version Humatic plans a physical interactive set up with real hacked cat which will allow an intense concertant high dynnamic audio-visual experience. The sound of each moving arm will be amplifiesd with multi channel equipment.
