深圳驻留演出｜🪩 ALGORAVE 算法音乐现场 X 机器人剧场

SHENZHEN ALGORAVE 将首次以公共演出的形式引入剧场语境，将新兴实验的 Algorave 算法音乐文化引入全球视野，带来尖端前沿的实时编程、生成式视觉与科技艺术内容。在深圳机器人剧场300平米的大屏幕上，一场由代码驱动的音乐锐舞派对即将发生。

SHENZHEN ALGORAVE marks the first time this emerging experimental music culture will be introduced within a formal theater context in Shenzhen. Bringing the global phenomenon of Algorave into focus, the event showcases cutting-edge live coding, generative visuals, and tech-art. At the Shenzhen Robot Theater, over 300sqm screen, a music rave driven entirely by code is about to unfold.

Algorave不仅是一种音乐风格，也是一种态度，它拒绝隐藏技术，也拒绝把算法当作幕后工具。演出以 Algorave 算法音乐文化为核心。Livecoding 作为其关键形式，艺术家在现场实时书写代码，同步生成音乐与视觉。所有声音与影像均在演出过程中即时产生（无预制内容，也不使用人工智能模型）。观众能够直接看到代码的生成过程，理解声音、节奏与视觉如何在算法逻辑中被不断演化。

Algorave is more than just a musical style; it is an attitude. It rejects the concealment of technology and refuses to treat algorithms as mere behind-the-scenes tools. At the heart of this performance is Livecoding—a key practice where artists write code in real-time to simultaneously generate sound and visuals. All audio and imagery are produced instantaneously during the performance (no pre-recorded content, no AI models). The audience can witness the code as it is written, gaining a direct understanding of how sound, rhythm, and visuals evolve through algorithmic logic. We will finish the night with a live DJ set with live coded visuals. We will showcase a variety of live coded sets from ambient to dance music. 

在深圳机器人剧场这一高度技术化的空间中，音乐在现场被计算，视觉在代码中生长，节奏、光线与结构不断被重写。演出整体呈现为一场介于音乐派对与实验性科技艺术演出之间的现场事件。这里既是音乐锐舞派对，也是实验现场，一场关于系统、控制与即兴演绎的实时测试。观众是被包裹在声光与运算之中的共同在场者。

Within the highly technical space of the Shenzhen Robot Theater, music is computed live, visuals grow from code, and rhythm, light, and structure are constantly rewritten. The event exists at the intersection of a music rave and an experimental tech-art performance—a real-time test of systems, control, and improvisation. Here, the audience becomes a collective presence enveloped in sound, light, and computation.

机器人剧场在这一夜变成临时的计算场

低频、闪烁、逻辑断裂与突然成立的秩序交替出现

剧场将成为一个开放的计算系统

SHENZHEN ALGORAVE 

一切都处于持续演算的临界状态

Robot Theater will transform into a temporary computational field

Low frequencies, flickering lights, fractured logic, and sudden bursts of order collide

The theater becomes an open computing system

SHENZHEN ALGORAVE

Everything exists in a state of continuous calculation

Char Stiles

MIT Media Lab, Future Sketches 

Char Stiles is a computational artist, educator, and researcher. She works creatively in the lower levels of graphical computational systems & makes jokes about how computers work. She is currently an affiliate at the MIT Media Lab`s Future Sketches group researching the future of creative coding in performance. She is a part of the Livecode.nyc collective & she co-founded Hex House, an artist studio and event space in East Williamsburg. She has performed internationally, including festivals such as Electric Forest, Portola, and Mutek Nexus. She has lectured and led workshops at Carnegie Mellon University, Duke University, University of Limerick, MIT, and NYU. 

Livecoding is the performance of writing code that compiles to make visuals and music live, without AI. Antithetical to conventional electronic music performances, that are pre-prepared and opaque, in a livecoding performance the audience can see the code being written on-the-fly improvised music and visuals.

Arbor 

Arbor is an artist interested in light as a medium of expression. Through the coordination of light in time, he creates works that blur the boundaries between performance, installation, and artifact.

Diffusion is an audiovisual performance composed of real-time simulations as a live-puppetered poetry of light and sound. 

Featuring sound by Tzu Ni.

* This work contains flashing and flickering patterns, high-frequency sounds, and rapid changes in light and sound intensity. Please take care if you are sensitive to light or have photosensitive or auditory conditions.

Jessica Stringham (this.xor.that) 

She creates visuals using custom live coding software written in Rust. this.xor.that’s real-time visuals incorporate geometric patterns, vibrant colors, and glitches driven by code expressions that incorporate MIDI, audio signals, and occasionally things like heart rate monitors or the act of drawing. 

As a graduate researcher at MIT Media Lab`s Future Sketches group, Jessica explores ways to create and navigate vast parameter spaces through live coding, multi-modal input, and machine learning techniques. Previously a machine learning engineer at Spotify, they hold a BSc in Computer Science from Harvey Mudd College and an MSc in Artificial Intelligence from the University of Edinburgh. this.xor.that has performed in the US, the UK, and Spain.

Sidney San Martin (s4y)

s4y programs and moves with sound, lasers, and coordinate spaces. he designs custom tools and electronics for live performance and immersive art, and enjoys deeply technical work focused into small, quiet moments. he will be performing live, generative visuals over a DJ set by Arbor (~20m).

Sam Chin

Sam Chin is an engineer and artist who works at the intersection of electronics and physical materials. She integrates circuitry with textiles and ceramics, creating large-scale interactive installations and curious objects that invite exploration. Her work includes developing the electronics for the Living Knitwork Pavilion at Burning Man’s Honoraria program, among other projects that explore what happens when technology meets traditional craft.
