18:17

18:17 is a collaborative audiovisual performance featuring live saxophone, experimental music, and real-time visual storytelling through code-generated imagery. Created by three artists — Musician and Computer Programmer Danny Meyer, Visual Artists Yan and Yifan — the project explores the contrast and interplay between analog warmth and surreal digital landscapes.

Each musical piece is paired with a unique visual scene. For the opening piece "Rest Relax" and Bach's prelude, the visuals are edited from footage of old films, evoking a nostalgic, analog texture. For the remaining six pieces, original CG scenes were created in Unreal Engine, combining with geometric sequences generated by Weresocool to build alien-like dreamscapes that mirror the experimental sounds.
