Electronic producer Corin Ileto performs a celestial soundtrack in a hybrid virtual world created by multimedia artist Tristan Jalleh, that combines baroque, anime, and sci-fi film aesthetics. Inspired by the ‘hydraulis’ (ancient water organ), Ileto is interested in the idea of musical instruments as spirits and sacred objects. Transcending the boundaries between the physical and virtual, the instrument merges CGI animations by Jalleh with a keyboard prop that Ileto built from the remnants of an abandoned piano.
