Plot
Thinking about your touch is a live cinema project that arises from the collaboration between musician and composer Alex Aller and visual artist Irene Sáenz. It is a piece that aims to evoke the tactile sensitivity of moving images and invites us to reflect on the nature of perception and the desire to physically connect with the intangible. As for the sound space, it proposes to use the physicality of the action of the projection as an audio resource in a live generative music composition.

Irene Sáenz
Galician visual artist, photographer and filmmaker based in Madrid. After studying Film Directing and Filmmaking, she is interested in experimental language and contemporary avant-garde art practices. Researcher of non-conventional methods as well as the study and search for alternative practices both in the laboratory and in photography and digital video, she deepens her interest in the materiality and tactility of images. Strongly linked to music, she accompanies artists such as Álex Aller, Margarida Mariño or the group Nervio Ignoto with live visuals, performing at national festivals and other important venues in Madrid's cultural scene. She will soon present several visualizers created for the album Trensmutation at the FanzineFest festival as part of the FPS-BPM programme. Her debut film Humedalia has been presented in the Germinal section of Mujeres de Cine, within the ‘Nosotras Contamos’ programme and in the Curto Circuito Festival, winning the Galiza Award.
