Canvas is an interactive installation that fosters community collaboration in the creation of a singular, evolving artwork. Over the course several days, participants engage in a communal painting process, with each individual contribution adding to the evolving visual piece. Concurrently, the live video feed of the painting is sonified through a MaxMSP patch, generating a complex and dynamic sonic landscape that is inextricably linked to the visual art. Through this immersive sensory experience, Canvas offers a unique opportunity to explore the intersection art, technology, and community engagement. For this version of the installation, the Peabody Institute's graduating class of 2023 was invited to contribute to the piece over the course of one week.
