This performance of Barbra Streisand’s 1973 hit single, “The Way We Were”, pairs a play on the word “memories” with a unique combination of real-time image and sound processing tools to evoke nostalgia for outmoded technologies. Created at an artist’s residency at Signal Culture in Owego, NY, the image is processed by rescanning Signal Culture's Raster Manipulation Unit (aka “Wobbulator”), built by the organization's co-founder, Jason Bernagozzi, intern Robert Hoffman, and Dave Jones. Panzarino’s voice is processed by The Nipulator 2.0, a custom-built, wireless electronic bra created by the artist that uses hardware potentiometers (or knobs), a hacked DJ Hero microcontroller, and a Max/MSP software patch. The left "nipple" of the bra (nip)ulates the frequency of Panzarino’s voice in real-time, while the right "nipple" adds reverb.
