ODAIBE (PL)- Bartek Szlachcic + Ela Leszczyńska + Karol Jaśkowiak: Ghost Drummer, 2012, audiovisual perfomance 

Bartek Szlachcic is a graphic designer, musician and new media artist He create sounds & space under name Odaibe. Ghost Drummer is a multidisciplinary project that explores graphic qualities in process of playing on a drum kit. Besides being a musician, drummer when playing is unconsciously engaged in an elaborate choreography. The drum sticks are the extensions of drummer’s hands like a brush is an extension of the painter’s hand. Motion-captured movements become a visual map over a time revealing fragile rhythm structures and invisible notations behind energetic instrumental solo.
