(ESP) Banda versátil que toca canciones cuya música está constituida por sonidos digitales detonados por el movimiento del cuerpo. El proyecto es una co-autoría entre Nadia Lartigua, Juan Francisco Maldonado y Esthel Vogrig. Hemos jugado con un instrumento llamado “La Matraca”, que está constituido por una cámara que detecta los movimientos del cuerpo en ciertas áreas preestablecidas y a través de una programación muy simple en vvvv y PD, éstos se convierten en sonido.
Por la forma en que el instrumento está diseñado (y sus imperfecciones) , es muy difícil mantener un ritmo con éste. Para encontrar y descubrir cómo hacerlo (además de que ninguno de los tres es músico) nos ha tomado muchas horas de ensayo. Obviamente, la interfaz también está determinando los tipos de movimientos que estamos haciendo. La letra, el ritmo, la melodía, la estructura y nuestra presencia en el escenario aparecen simultáneamente (o casi), mientras nos reunimos siempre que podemos para seguir tocando.

The lyrics, rhythm, melody, structure, and our stage presence simultaneously appear (or nearly so), as we meet whenever we can to keep playing.
