INKING / PICTURES AT AN EXHIBITION: Multimedia Orchestra Experience is a unique intersection between orchestral music, abstract animation, and neuroscience. By using multi-projection, musicians surrounding the gallery space, and cutting edge electroencephalography (EEG) technology, "Inkling" is an immersive representation of the neural processes during an artist's creative state. Alongside Inkling is a multimedia performance of Modest Mussorgsky's monumental "Pictures at an Exhibition", orchestrated by Maurice Ravel, incorporating Viktor Hartmann's paintings that inspired the musical work.
