Affairs of the Current // Laurie O’Dowd

Affairs of the Current is a live audiovisual performance by Glasgow-based artist Laurie O’Dowd.

Blending generative technology and experimentation, he creates an interactive dialogue with his audience. O’Dowd integrates visual and sound samples derived from field recordings and installations that capture the dynamic movement of water. Inspired to develop a language that facilitates the connection between the audio and visual, he explores how these distinct elements can work together to extend each other’s meaning. His performance immerses audiences in an organic, ever-shifting interplay of sight and sound, exploring the fluid relationship between perception, nature and technology.
