From Rhizome Artbase
Nio is an interactive visual/sound poem/song. You construct layers and
sequences of synchronized audio/animations. It suggests a new form of
music/multimedia. Instead of music videos, interactive, compositional,
instrumental, dismembered music will arise on the Web.
The project also includes two essays ('Nio and the Art of Interactive
Audio for the Web' and 'Technotes on Nio and Audio Programming with
Director 8') and some visual poems made from onion skins of the Nio
animations.
Nio is a commission of New Radio and Performing Arts, Inc. for its
Turbulence web site with funds from the National Endowment for the Arts.
