Lili Maya, video + James Rouvelle, electronics
Artist Lili Maya and composer James Rouvelle have paired original music and video art in live performance internationally since 2009. Maya, a longtime faculty member of the Maryland Institute College of Art, and Rouvelle, a Julliard-trained composer, create performances that integrate traditional and emerging media in a way that permits improvisation both visually and musically through a set of organized sections that are arranged in real time. Maya’s room-sized screens and Rouvelle’s sound system create an immersible environment of vivid images and sounds.
