Developed as a collaboration between Quayola & Sinigaglia, Dedalo is a collection of custom developed vvvv engines (and a toolkit) to generate, exchange and map data between a series of graphics modules and a rendering engine used for live performance and audiovisual concerts. The first project to utilise the toolkit was performed with Mira Calix and premiered in Moscow for the opening of Quayola’s solo show, then performed in LA at USC (video below).
