Quicken Moon Concert - Performance of 月伸1 by Amar
YouTube via catsynth — April 11, 2010 — "Performance of 月伸1 by Amar at the Luggage Store Gallery on February 25, 2010. The video features his "wondercat" Luna. The live improvised performance uses the Octave CAT vintage analog synthesizer, Korg KAOS pad, Dave Smith Evolver., and Monome controller."
This one brought a smile to my face.

On this particular piece: "Of course, the highlight of the set was the premier of 月伸1, featuring improvised electronic music set against a video of Luna. Musically, I focused on the Octave CAT (seemed appropriate) with the other electronic instruments in a supporting role.
The music was improvised live, with some prepared guidelines. In this way, it was reminiscent of the live music performances from old silent films. I kept the music relatively sparse and maintained the focus on the visual elements, which moved back and forth between clips of Luna and abstract visual elements (you can read more about the video production here [see link above]). The audience clearly responded to the video of Luna and the music, and their laughter at very points reminded just how funny a piece this was."
