ABOUT
Chagall puts a beating heart in music & technology. She sings, composes, dances, programs, experiments and paves her way through everything that is human. Captivating, playful and intimate; every performance by Chagall is a spectacular audio-visual experience that inspires and connects.Chagall has no educational background in either music or technology, but is a living example that technology, computer programming and electronics can be mastered if you know what you want to get from it.Her journey in tech began in London in 2014 when she joined the music technology startup MiMU. Her involvement in Imogen Heap's musical gloves company kickstarted Chagall's fascination for motion controllers in electronic music performance and stimulated her to learn more about computer programming.
She was the company's UI/UX designer until 2020 and worked on the development of their innovative applications Glover, Gliss and The Jellyfish.By 2017 she produced her first live show in which she controlled all digital elements in the music and visual projections with her MiMU Gloves. This work, 'Calibration', sent her across the globe to give performances and tell her story of using sensor-tech in music to colleagues & students at events like TEDx, South by Southwest, Eurosonic Noorderslag, Ableton Loop, MUTEK Montreal, Reeperbahn Festival, Sonar +D, Dutch Design Week, Amsterdam Dance Event, Boiler Room and many more.In 2019 she created ‘Advaita’ for which she turned the Xsens motion capture suit into a full body musical instrument. By developing this technical ability she really made live music, technology, visual and movement work together in harmony as all artistic elements are controlled by one thing: the performer’s body. The result is a synergy of movement, music and visual effects performance that is understood intuitively and emotionally.In 2021 her first light-art-installation B.A.B.Y. was born. In the live show 'Unlocked', Chagall controls the physical structure around her with her movement, turning the machine B.A.B.Y. into a soft, living creature.In 2023 she started LoveLace - a foundation to support female identifying artists to learn and apply technology in their work.
