workshop Hackteria & Lab Hack >> 30.5-3.6. >> NK Berlin
0 Comments Published by Administrator May 14th, 2009 in news, sound, workshopsMarc Dussellier and Kaspar König will hold a first workshop about the topic of hackteria.cc, meaning DIY practices for biology, microscopy and the resulting artistic visualisation and sonification.
Saturday 30 May - Wednesday 3 June 2009, 12.00-18.00 daily
Location: eNKa / ElsenStr. 52 (2.Hof) Berlin, Germany
Telephone: +49 (0)176 20626386
Course Participation fee: 100 euros
Please register early to ensure a place. Places are limited to 16.

eNKa_NK@gmx.de
For Workshop leaders Biographies and full description and additional reading go to myspace.com/enka52
Overview
Experimental make-workshop with multilayered outcome for people interested in sound, DIY-biology, microscopy and interaction of living microorganisms. Knowledge in physical computing, video and sound processing, electronics and puredata is welcome, but not compulsary.
Description
In this workshop the experiments will take place in close-up view of microorganisms
(e.g. water bears aka tardigrades,amoebae and collected organisms from urban environments), which appears to be a world by itself. Maybe due to the scaling and the amplification of a microscope, but maybe also due to all parameters of imagination that the microcosmos provokes. Growth and behaviour of these
microscopic animals remind us of our own micro-macro-development. With the image and the movement of the organisms, the participants are encouraged to collect inspiration and bridge video and sound to what they experience with these small “animalcules”, as termed by their first observer Leeuwenhoek in 1677.
The participants will learn
How to work with the usb-microscopes and hack webcams to be used as microscopes, observe the behaviour and motion of the waterbears and other microorganisms, find sounds from the lab equipment, hack into electronic devices to integrate into bioelectronic culture devices and build habitats for the animals. Also they will discover sounds from the different instrumentation and utilities of the laboratory. Recycle and compose arrangements for Lab-visual and Lab-sound scapes and benefit from a cross fertilization between the whole (scientific) equipment (you can bring your own too!) and an artistic metaphorical language.
The outcome can be a video with a microscopic soundtrack, a living object with singing waterbears, a performance with laboratory sounds, or an openLab Hackteria installation.
Material needed
The participant should bring their own laptop/computer, a webcam with an adjustable lens and some general lab stuff they have access to.
Material available
various labware, glassware, petri-dishes, usb-microscopes, microorganisms, soldering stations, electronic parts, arduinos etc..

Een groep van 17 figuren, idac(h)a’s stelt een verloren gewaande beschaving voor. Ze bezitten zowel letterlijk als figuurlijk de aarde, doordat ze bestaan uit een mengeling van polyester en zand. Hierdoor symboliseren ze de zwaarte van het bestaan. Het gebied van de figuren ligt hoger dan de wereld van het publiek. Zo ontstaat er een afgebakende ruimte.

Hsuan Huang, Violine
Thomas Pösl, Baritonsaxophon
Marcel Weller, elektrische Gitarre,
Jan Treuner, gesprochenes Wort,
Markus Wenninger, Sopranklarinette, Komposition.
Wir werden (u.a.) ein Stück von mir spielen, „Footage II//: Kopf / Schatten“ (2007), das zu dem Text „Ein Instrumentalisiertes Gedicht 2“ von Jan Treuner geschrieben wurde, ursprünglich für solo Klarinette, das ich aber umschreiben werde für das Konzert in Maastricht für die obige Besetzung, einschließlich je einer Stimme für Dich & für Matthijs. ).
Textinfo „N.V.E.“:
Das Nora Volkova Ensemble, 2006 von Markus Wenninger gegründet, benannte sich nach der russischen Filmkünstlerin, welche als Kind ein Bombenattentat überlebte; ein T-förmiges Stück einer Antipersonenmine namens M18A1 “Claymore” steckt seitdem inoperabel in ihrem Cortex. N.Volkova lebt sehr zurückgezogen an unbekanntem Ort wahrscheinlich Russlands, wo sie mit Hilfe ihrer Schwester & des Internets ihr sehr eigenwilliges Oeuvre einer weltweiten Anhängerschaft zugänglich macht, Filmstill für Filmstill; Julio Cortázar ist einer der äußerst raren Berichte zu Volkova zu verdanken, unter dem Titel “Queremos tanto a Glenda”, 1980, die bislang umfangreichste Untersuchung steuerte William Gibson bei, in “Pattern Recognition”, 2003.
Das Ensemble setzt sich in wechselnden Besetzungen außergewöhnliche Aufführungen zum Ziel, & Musik jenseits der ausgetretenen Pfade von Komposition & Improvisation: Musiken zu Hörspiel & Film, Kompositionen zusammen mit elektroakustischen Instrumentierungen, experimentelle theatralische Werke, interdisziplinäre Arbeiten aus Literatur & bildender Kunst, insbesondere Aufführungen alternativer Notationen.

F.A.I.T. gallery >> Unsound festival >> Krakow 19th oct
0 Comments Published by Administrator October 19th, 2008 in sound, performancesZimmerstreich (I) mit Schlagsahne
Idea:
Suppose the inside of a room is the resonance body of
an instrument…. How would the instrument have to look like to sound good?
An installation to interactively search the sound of the room.
(with and without participation of the audience)
Howto:
a little check on the materials in the room.
(is there a window? is there a door? is there wood in the room?
is there another system like airco inside? etc.)
then a check of attachmechanisms in the room.
where can i tension to points without hurting resonancy?
and then attach & tension the strings (nylon/metall etc.) to
all the attachable points and insert classical ridges to tune and
emphasize. If necessary, amplify also with piezos and pickupcoils.
Also Simon will install 4 boxes with feedback coils. They will be hung from the
sealing and will swing around.
test & changes:
Throughout the exhibition the workout will contain changes of
extra resonance boxes and other things possibly tensioned to the wall by the
placed strings.
in the installation:
audience is able to touch and play the strings on walls/ floors/ windows etc.
in the vernisage or finisage the room will be played with a composition made
by the maker at that moment.
technology:
>nylon, endless guitar-strings, and more strings of any kind.
>nobs, ridges, tensioners from the instruments like violin, guitar, bass.
> plugs and screws to make attachmentpoint. (drill machine)
> piezo, pickup, 8 track mixer (or more) and 3 small PAs. (this can be home use old amplifier systems from 2nd hand shop)

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.
