About Thresholds / Of the Measurable and the Unmeasurable

2026 — Lili Maya, James Rouvelle, Jude Markey-Smith collaboration.

About Thresholds is a textured, 60-minute performance that unfolds across three distinct sections. Set within a field of sculpture, dance, live video, and sound, the piece explores interior and exterior proportionality as a dynamic framework of orientation—directly influenced by the dancer’s changing pulse.

Study for Electronics, Organ and Piano

2024 — Lili Maya + James Rouvelle collaboration.

A study for an in-progress project with organist Alexander Meszler. The sound is made with Kyma and a Buchla Easel.

Kyma features some very powerful Hidden Markov Model (HMM/Pattern Generation) functions that I’ve been studying and are a part of this project.

This project is a continuation of our performative works.

An aspect of our live performing is, of course, rehearsing. We usually discuss our process publicly by describing how we work together to coordinate different sections of sound/music/image, and then improvise our way into and out of these moments as we play. Another component of our work are visual scores that we create – typically very early in the development of the project. These scores aren’t in any specific language, nor do they use a set of predefined symbols. They are unique to each piece. We realized we’ve never spoken publicly about this part of our work before.

These scores, hypothetically, can be realized in various media and potentially by other artists.
