If and only if
If and only if is a live laptop performance that combines traditional laptop improvisation with elements of live coding. Data generated from the live manipulation of Markov chain probability weightings is used to generate and process sound materials in real time. These sound materials continue to evolve under the direction of the Markov chains, while the performer turns his attention to other layers of sound. The resulting piece is complex and detailed, with the temporal and spectral space to allow the noiselessness of the data to make its presence unheard.
