Role

Light design

The Fatal Light Attraction is an audiovisual performance based on the eponymous album by British musician Samuel Kerridge.

The work employs a live coding system that responds in real time to the audio, while an intense lighting setup surrounds the performer—creating a dynamic interplay of sound and light, and the illusion of a moving shadow.

“A truly coherent and intense audiovisual project characterizes the entire show. Kerridge’s sonic arsenal—including elements such as walkie-talkie transmissions and guitar feedback—directly assaults the listener’s senses. At the same time, Andrej and Maria’s minimalist yet sophisticated lighting design creates a powerful visual counterpart, generating anthropomorphic, floating shadows through the live connection between sound and light. These forms barely resemble the human figure. The performance is a compelling example of achieving maximum impact with minimal formal means.” — Lunchmeat
