Quilted Thought Organ

Julian Oliver
2000

Quilted Thought Organ is a modification of the first person shooter game, Quake ll. Julian Oliver has used the Quake ll game engine to create a real-time audio performance and installation environment., stripping the game back from it’s 3D rendered aesthetic to a wireframe, geometric artwork. Instead of killing being the object of the game, the usual twitch and shoot objects and actions trigger sound samples and the player becomes a composer or DJ, and the game a musical instrument.
