AZDAAD is an A/V composition/performance by NUM, for voice, SounDice, and an interactive generative video engine. SounDice is a multi-rhythmic pattern generator developed by Bagheri in Max MSP with the help of electroacoustic and generative music techniques, integrated with computer programming and mathematics. To create the visuals, the mixed audio goes through a generative video engine, created by Bagheri, to be translated into images. The interactive video engine, which is developed in Max Jitter, pictures the sound by employing spectral analysis, video blending, and geometry.

AZDAAD (which means opposites, contrastive or paradoxical concepts, in Persian/Arabic) is a process in order to find the balance between human and machine, logic and emotion,
arbitrariness and predictability. AZDAAD examines the possibility of making a whole out of
paradoxical and contrastive materials. To fulfil this purpose, two performers use three machines as their instruments to create sound and image simultaneously.

NUM performed AZDAAD at New Music Edmonton (Edmonton, Canada), and Sled Island (Calgary, Canada) in summer 2022.
