Paper Abstract:	Heat Seeker is an audio-visual project, which has been released in different formats: performance, video, and website. In this paper, it is contextualized with similar projects that combine music and visuals. The motivation and aims behind Heat Seeker are then presented. The main objective is to combine visuals with sound in an electronic music performance, creating an engaging hypermediated experience for the audience. A description of the project and its development follows, including project extensions to different platforms, such as the Web. Conclusions are reached regarding the accomplishment of the initial aims, which are only partially achieved, particularly in the areas of flexibility of the project and coherence of content. Paths for future developments are then outlined, in terms of additional project extensions and additional projects.
