she is continuouslyexploring sound and music as physical phenomena, always pushing back theboundaries in experimental performances and compositions that questionestablished notions, improving the available techniques and given structures;Liberovskaya has been exploring improvised live visuals in the context of livemusic/sound concert situations since the early 2000s, collaborating withnumerous music and sound artists; her live visuals seek to create improvisatory"music" for the eyes; they span a wide variety of approaches fromstraightforward real-time montage and processing of pre-recorded material tothe use of diverse kinds of live cameras to capture live "events" onthe concert stage and integrate them to the image mix;
