Machine Music - live A/V Performance by Den Ree x Nikilia

In our first creative collaboration we brought together livecoded music and realtime @touchdesigner visuals into one shared narrative. Together we created a high energy, genre-blending audiovisual experience that you can move to.
On the journey of following our creative spark something new emerged that neither of us could have done alone. Now we’re ready to bring this energy to more stages!
Big thanks to the @v2_unstable residency for giving us the time and space to create this set and to perform it as part of the “Mirage” concert.
Now booking for 2026.

Last Thursday, the Rotterdam Live Coders @n1k1l1a and @den_ree joined us in the @operator.radio studio to talk about their upcoming contribution to V2_Live.

The second edition, Mirage, looks at the shifting dialogue between bodies, machines, and data, merging live-coded sound and vision into a space where perception bends.

This Friday at V2, Mirage becomes an audiovisual performance where humans step inside the algorithm. Gestures and voices feed the system and return transformed, creating a play between intimacy, distance, and technological control.

#audiovisual #livecoding #touchdesigner #algorave

the combination of livecoding and midi controllers gives me control over each instrument and opens up new opportunities for experimentation. 🎛️ #djsets #breakbeatdj #newmediart #creativecoding #algorave

i’m still at the beginning of this… still trying to change my habits and way of thinking. but finding this world gave me a direction where i want to go #newmediart #interactivemedia #digitalmedia #kabk #livecoding

beta is coming.. and i’m excited to tell more about the app..

this year i decided to focus on audio development to spend even more time with music #recordingapp #softwareengineer #audiorecording #appledeveloper

for a long time i kept these 2 parts of myself separate #algorave #livecoding #newmediaart #creativecoding #musicmaking

sometimes you walk your path alone and in an unexpected way you arrive at a crossroads where other incredibly interesting people happen to be at the same time. together you pass through a portal of space, time, experiences and emotions, and then each of you returns to your own path.. but u.. with something transformed inside.

this is how i feel two months after my first algo-dj performance.

thank you @v2_unstable for the opportunity. thank you @eerieear, @n1k1l1a , @rikkiemm for the support and belief. thanks @fennadejong for beautifully capturing the moments. thank you @sebastianfrisch_ for the organization and professionalism. and thanks to everyone who was there for the beautiful days we shared..
