Derivative is pleased to announce the next-gen of their collaboration with techno-futurist Richie Hawtin who is unleashing PLASTIKMAN LIVE 2010 a much-anticipated series of live shows produced in collaboration with Minus & Derivative to launch at this year's Timewarp festival on March 27th, 2010.
The influential Plastikman performance at MUTEK 2004 was visually driven by Derivative's powerful software tool TouchDesigner enabling Richie to orchestrate sound and visual compositions generatively and in real time; the technology altering the course of how electronic music could be performed and experienced live.
That was then. With the current generation of TouchDesigner 077 completely reengineered, the team has built an information-rich bridge between Richie's Ableton Live rig and Derivative's TouchDesigner. Derivative will release the TouchDesigner-Live Bridge to its users this year. Hawtin's visual artist Ali Demirel has been working closely with Derivative's Jarrett Smith and Markus Heckmann in LA and Toronto to create the content and a custom performing interface for the shows.
Another Hawtin/Minus/Derivative collaboration invites the community to create their own visuals to original Plastikman tracks using TouchDesigner. Hawtin and Derivative have packaged and made available for download a complete toolset that includes a purpose-built TouchDesigner synth and four Plastikman tracks enabling participants with full support to produce visuals in the same real-time generative environment as the show's. Winning entries are to be incorporated into the live events. To read more about the contest please go to http://www.AtlantaTechnoLove.com |

| Hawtin needs to throw away all his computers and controllers and dust out his Roland boxes, and do what he does best. |

| I truly wonder how these new Plastikman live shows are going to be. Always wanted to see one of those from back in the day, I gotta know how this will compare. I really hope he drops the bull and goes back to his roots for this...would be awesome. |

We brought him to dekalb atlanta center, the venue that is now dreams in 2000 or 2001 with a freaking amazing production and a sound system that crushed that place! A whopping 150 people showed up. |
