About the Work

History Has Stopped at 2021 is written for solo snare drum, with real-time generated Open GL visuals done by MAX. The three Open Gl objects are moving on the screen in random paths, and their sizes changes with the amplitude of the live audio input.

This performance was performed by Samuel Chan, a top prize winner in numerous prestigious competitions. Originated from Hong Kong, Samuel obtained his Artist Diploma from the Colburn School and Master of Music from The Juilliard School, as well as previously studied at the New England Conservatory and HKAPA.
