blackbox >> a machine that does it all :-)

When I was making the blackbox at the kombinat > automaten workshop, i started with a old bontempi keyboard. Next to that I found a great designed Uetz suitcase, a classical storage system in Switzerland. In a moment I took off basicly all the mainpart of the keyboard like the keys, but I only left the volume and beat/accomp mix where it was.
Now I got a box that really interests me, cause it sounds everytime quit different, so it suprises over and over. Great for the concerts.
bending bass >> makes a boing tone
0 Comments Published by Administrator August 25th, 2008 in sound, designDuring the 10 x10 -> 11 days in cabaret voltaire I was able to make a bass that has a flexible body and a fixed foot where it can stand on. It sounds very deep and warm through the pick-up element from a guitar. The bass is made out of a bed slat base lying around in the magnusstreet in Zürich. Have a look at the picture.
90 degrees guitar >> very handy to play

also in the 10×10-> 11 dada days in cabaret voltaire, I was able to challenge the two guitars together and now they will always stay joined together for a special cause.
the classical side of the guitar sounds like an asian lute, more east.
the rockguitar sounds more like classic rock, more west.
try it out if you have to many guitars. It is a great deal of fun.
my first painting got stolen, did you see it?

PERFORMANCE & MOVEMENT
20:00u Lostbox
lostbox komt voort uit de fascinatie voor de mens, zijn lichaam als vorm en dat wat in die vorm afspeelt, de gedachtes en gevoelens.
Het is een onderzoek in de relatie tussen de verbale en non-verbale taal. Een onderzoek in de betekenis van een woord en de betekenis van een handeling.
Het lichaam staat voor de abstractie, de vorm, de buitenkant en de beweging.
lostbox is een belichaming van de uitdrukking ‘minder is meer’.

RE-USE YOUR BRAIN &
RE-USE YOUR HEART
an urban-home recycling project.
“可回收”的心智
一个从社区到家居的可回收工程
2007/11/5 > Monday at 18:00 hours >> QIQIANNIAN ART CENTER (798)
城市设计学院家居工作室郑韬凯老师规划了四周的“可持续设计”课题,
邀请 Kaspar König 先生进行指导,在一个多月的共同努力下,完成了这个工作室的课题,并举办这次“关于日常生活的可持续可回收设计”的展览。
>In cooperation with Kaspar König (www.kasparkoenig.com), the City School of Design
department of prof. Tao Kai Zheng exhibits the outcome of a 4 week workshop on
sustainable design and recycling in an everyday context.
可持续设计并非单纯沿着经济、社会、和生态的法则进行。
它包括微观层面的的设计,比如我们日常生活小物品的设计;
同时也包括宏观层面的设计,比如建筑、城市和地球的整体生态控制的设计。
这一次工作室的课题设计是以日常生活中最常见最普通的“垃圾”为原材料,
也就是愉快地将我们每天“丢掉”的东西重新设计和制作成带有功能或艺术价值的珠宝、家具或工具。
>Sustainable design is the art of designing physical objects to
comply with the principles of economic, social, and ecological sustainability.
It ranges from the microcosm of designing small objects for
everyday use, through to the macrocosm of designing buildings, cities, and the earth’s
physical surface. The resources used in this workshop are based on the nearest valuable
“waste” to enjoy making things with. Function follows material… the show displays
- jewelry - furniture - tools and
开幕时间:2007年11月5号晚6:00
展览时间:11月6号早上开始到11月10号结束。
展览地点:北京798艺术工厂漆千年画廊
展览内容:学生自己设计和制作的作品实物
一些纪录着设计全程细节的设计日记
作为课程的老师,Kaspar K鰊ig将欧洲和荷兰的先进的可持续设计经验注入到课程中来,
让我们重新审视身边的材料和“垃圾”的价值。
一定会让公众更好的了解可持续可回收的设计是一个有经济价值同时也是富于挑战和潜力的方向。
>The opening of this event will take place on Monday the 5th of november at 18:00h
in the QIQIANNIAN ART CENTER http://qiqiannian.artmaz.com/
in the north-east of beijing . It will last 4 days and
will be accompanied by a small documentary-book. Published and edited by the students
and Kaspar König. He is a specialist in redefining qualities of materials and his dutch attitude
helps undoubtfully to enhance the playfullness in the recycling and workflow of this project.
it is time to see how intelligent way to re-use and find recycling
此次活动也要部分归功于William燤cDonough & Michael Barnhart在以往所做的可持续设计的努力,
他们的著作《从摇篮到摇篮》的确影响了包括我们在内的有环保意识的社会大众的心灵。
希望社会各界的朋友在参观我们的展览的同时提出宝贵的意见!

1 Comment Published by Administrator January 18th, 2006 in sound, klangrad / sonicbikes, designLook at this guitarbike with strings and soundshift.
tune your bike for the ride. Listen to the tension of the spokes.
a bicycle capable to transform speed,
frame torsion and spoke tensity in splendid soundscapes.
The riding itself creates a pressure in the sattle that can power the harmonica at the steering wheel. Biking and practicing your daily riff.
the spacesound of the bicycle is made by a spring connected to a can.
the tiny little friction on the backwheel produces space literally and figurally.
audiotraining with the steples drum sequencer triggered by some little magnets on the iron wheel.
get in contact and hear it yourself during a testride.
Participate in a workshop or build it yourself anyway.
let the citysound out and compose your own urban soundstory. completely new!
