Experience the PSU Sonic Arts & Music Production Laptop Ensemble (SAMPLE) in their end-of-year concert at the ReWire Festival. This collaborative performance features original compositions created and performed entirely with laptops, custom software instruments, and interactive performance systems. Drawing from live coding, machine Learning tools for low-latency real-time performance, computer-vision, spectral time-stretching techniques, and custom-built sensor controllers, SAMPLE explores new approaches to digital music making and real-time interaction. Witness how technology and artistry merge to create immersive sonic environments shaped through experimentation, collective performance, and creative exploration.
This event is part of the Rewire Festival, a creative extravaganza featuring the diverse talents of Sonic Arts and Music Production program students in collaboration with PSU Theater lighting design students. Events include a songwriting showcase, a large-scale sound installation, and performances by the SAMP Laptop Ensemble.
