Viaje a Las Perseidas
Journey to the Perseids are Rafael Chicano (El Niño de los Peines) and Raúl Cantero, hardware and a telescope.
It all began as one of those traditions that I like to keep among friends: to meet every year to watch the rain of stars that every August we know as Tears of San Lorenzo.
The passion of one for music and the other for astronomy resulted in a live a/v that combines electronic improvisation based on synthesis with the projection of celestial bodies.
Without filters or editing, through an electronic telescope, Raúl Cantero traces a stellar map navigating between the stars, planets, moons and constellations that are offer in the programmed night, projecting them in large format in real time; simply, the watcher observes the sky as it is in real time (well, a few minutes or a few million years ago...) with the invaluable help of an amplification that helps us to observe the details with more precision.
At the same time, Rafael Chicano uses all his analogical potential to superimpose layers of sound that help us to travel the inabarcable distances that separate us from the stars.
