USO Project's Empty Rooms creates a self-organizing link between sound and visuals when a video camera "observes" a movie and a microphone "listens" to the space. The Kyma sound design environment (accelerated by the Pacarana sound computation engine) computes the data and performs real-time evaluations between the different types of numerical information (audio-video), producing a "sonorous response" to the asynchronous stream of audio-visual content. The synthesized information is then diffused in the performance space again through 4 loudspeakers.
