SUMMARY:Brane Zorman – Artist Talk and performance
DESCRIPTION:Brane Zorman is a composer\, sound and radio artist and founder of CONA. Based in Ljubljana\, Slovenia\, he has composed numerous sound works for theatre and dance performances\, new media and internet events and projects. His work examines and explores the possibilities of processing\, presenting\, perceiving\, understanding\, positioning\, manipulating and reinterpreting the sound and space. Employing old (analogue)\, digital technologies and techniques his work traverses the fields of music\, multimedia and visual space. By using both sophisticated and simple tools he is developing strategies\, methods\, dynamic and interactive interpretation models\, soundscapes\, creating electronic and acoustic evolving sound sculptures. \nBrane Zorman works with ready-made and transformed images\, video clips and databases of vulkanos\, lava bursts and explosions from the web and private collections. Out of the photos\, locations\, temperature variations\, chemical reactions and recorded data he creates and manipulates live and pre-recorded sound sculptures and sequences that relate to colors\, light intensity\, shadows\, contrast and shapes of the treated visual materials. He is transforming a visual representation of lava eruptions and flows (lines\, points\, cracks\, amorphic- organic forms) to a sequencer score using various software tools and predefined parameters assigned to sensors thus driving and modulating sounds that are result of his field recording sessions. By analyzing visual sources he is building an unique and constantly changing compositional dynamics and dramaturgy of sound sculptures and sequences presented in a surround spatial performance\, giving deep\, emotional\, sometimes scary and very physically intense low frequency experience\, thus contrasting the relaxed\, blending and fading\, calm and monotonic video slide projection of the transformed photo sources in the background. \nBrane will talk about his work and will perform Hidden Materia\, a sound composition inspired by and conceived as an ongoing journey of the raw\, liquid\, vivid force of terrestrial magma carrying the unparalleled and hidden amount of energy and threat. “Hidden Materia” project was created and developed as a trilogy of live sound and video performances between 2012 and 2014. \n \n  \n \n  \n  \n  \nThis programme is supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England.

SUMMARY:Alois Yang – Artist Talk at Music Hackspace
DESCRIPTION:Aloïs Yang\, is a sound artist\, designer and electronic musician who produces work that explores the relation and interaction between people\, sound\, and the external world. His work is influenced both by scientific reference and human imperfection of understanding the nature. \nAlois will present his work Hear The World Ending\, \nA sound installation made according to the orbits’ timeframe\, with its musical content only being complete at the exact moment an asteroid might impact earth\, or put it another way – the end of the world. Each asteroid will be given a sound character according to the data given by NASA’s Near Earth Object program. \nThe actual installation exists as a star map projection which is aligned to the actual position of the stars. The unseen and uncertain asteroids will be played through a four channels speaker system surrounding the audience\, sponsored by The Sound Junky\, which features the best bookshelf speakers under $1000.\n. \n \n \n \n  \n  \n  \nThis programme is supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England.

SUMMARY:Tara Pattenden - Artist Talk at Music Hackspace
DESCRIPTION:Tara Pattenden is an artist\, musician and maker of electronic noise\ninstruments. For the past 5 years she has been working with soft\ncircuitry to create interfaces for audio electronics that manipulate\nsound through touch and movement. She will be presenting and\ndiscussing some of her creations. \nAs Phantom Chips she performs with an array of home made electronic\ninstruments\, samplers and wearable noisemakers. Concocting rhythms\nfrom manipulated found and recorded sounds Phantom Chips invites the\naudience to wear and play her costumes and join in with the audio. The\ncostumes create sound through movement and allow audience members to\nexperiment with a brand-new form of musical expression. The\ndeliberately clumsy and awkward interfaces invite playfulness and\nimprovisation. \nAustralian-born Tara Pattenden works in the field of analog\nelectronics\, noise performance and soft circuitry. She has been making\ninteractive noise and mess for over 15 years performing with kunt\,\nmonster zoku onsomb and various other collaborators. \n \n  \n \n  \n  \n  \nThis programme is supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England.

SUMMARY:Mobile Audio Hackers meet-up
DESCRIPTION:The Mobile Audio Hackers night meets periodically to share knowledge\, tips and tricks about coding audio on mobile devices (smartphones and tablets) of all persuasions. Potential topics include real-time synthesis\, streaming audio\, multipeer connectivity\, Pd integration\, and third party frameworks\, with possible applications in live improv\, arts projects\, and game development\, etc.\n\n \n\nIn our next meeting\, Martin Roth from Enzien Audio (and formerly from RjDj) will discuss Enzien’s project\, Heavy. They explain it in this way: ‘Heavy is a Pure Data-to-C compiler. If you provide a Pd patch\, Enzien will send you an optimised vanilla-C library that can be used in embedded hardware\, mobile\, desktop\, console\, and the web. It is meant mainly for advanced users for whom running libpd in their app is out of the question (perhaps for integration or performance reasons). These users probably have a lot of signal processing code that needs to be run quickly. They want to retain the flexibility of designing and changing the software in Pd\, but want the speed of native code.’\n\n\nenzienaudio.com\n\n\nEntrance is free\n  \n\n

SUMMARY:Kazumi interface and DIY kit by Luis Zayas
DESCRIPTION:Makerversity member Luis Zayas brings Kazumi\, an accessible instrument for aspiring musicians and makers designed to remove as many barriers to participation as possible. \nEach of the seven surfaces are touch-pads subdivided into five configurable electrodes. The structure can be rotated on its base to transpose the selected scale. Playing music on Kazumi is a tactile\, sensory experience\, hands exploring and caressing to draw different notes from the speaker embedded in the peak. \nIt has been designed as an open-source DIY kit. This will not only allow anyone to learn about the materials and processes that have gone into the instrument but it will empower users by encouraging them to hack and customise it as the ultimate way of appropriation. \n \n

SUMMARY:Max Connect - London\, with Cycling '74
DESCRIPTION:For this open evening\, we will host the first Max Connect London\, the first Cycling ’74 meeting of Max Connect Europe.\n“Max Connect is back (formerly known as Max 7 Hang)! \nThe previous events were such a hit\, we had to do it again. This time we are blazing through Europe\, visiting old friends\, making new ones\, and sharing our love of Max 7 and all its creative possibilities. \nWhether you’re a seasoned user or have only thought about downloading our 30-day demo\, we want to hang out with you and talk about Max. \nNot since the introduction of Max 5 has a new release included so many updates and changes. Max 7 introduces a new video engine\, quicker patching via new objects and an entirely new time stretching algorithm built from the ground up. In addition\, it’s now easier to drag and drop audio\, video\, VSTs and Max For Live devices directly into your patcher and be up and running. \nCome for some swag\, linger for refreshments\, and stay for the people. \nMax Connect London is presented with our good friends at Music Hackspace\, on Thursday June 18 at 7PM”. \nhttps://cycling74.com/2015/06/04/max-connect-europe/ \n#maxconnect \nDate: Thursday June 18 at 7PM.\nLocation: Unit 15 (ContainerVille)\, 5–10 Corbridge Crescent\, E2 9DS\nFor any questions\, email admin@stagingmhs.local

SUMMARY:Trumpet augmentation and future musicianship - Joseph Thibodeau
DESCRIPTION:Augmented trumpets are acoustic trumpets on which transducers have been mounted in order to provide extra sonic control variables. At present only a few augmented trumpets are known to be in active use\, yet there is an obvious interest in the subject judging by the regularity of new projects appearing in the literature since the first publication in 1989. \nIn order to fully explore the musical potential of this technology\, it must be adopted by a larger population of performers. The problem is that takes a great deal of technical expertise to create\, maintain\, modify\, and upgrade a sophisticated custom instrument. This is an insurmountable hurdle to those who might otherwise be interested in making music with an augmented trumpet. How can the technical requirements of such projects be reduced to promote widespread experimentation? \nStarting with a review of existing projects\, this presentation demonstrates that while each augmented trumpet must fit to custom artistic needs\, there are commonalities that could be incorporated into a standardized design approach. \nThe proposed solution is to use an open and modular paradigm\, making it easier to build instruments and share design ideas\, and to pursue embedded synthesis\, allowing for standalone instruments with plug-and-play behaviour. \nAudio examples will accompany the presentation\, and an open discussion on new musical instrument design will follow. \nJoseph Thibodeau is a musician and researcher associated with McGill University’s Music Technology area and Concordia University’s Penhune Laboratory for Motor Learning and Neural Plasticity. His work centres mainly around new digital musical instruments\, specifically augmented trumpets\, which he uses in live performance and in studio production. His research is published in Computer Music Journal\, and in 2014 he was commissioned to compose augmented trumpet music for a Radio-Canada documentary\, “Correspondences de Guerre”. \nTogether with fellow researcher Jason Hockman (Birmingham City University)\, Joseph produces music under the alias DAAT and runs the Detuned Transmissions record label. In 2014\, DAAT’s full-length album HVAC received overwhelming support from a variety of international DJs\, airplay on some of the United Kingdom’s largest broadcasting services (e.g.\, BBC\, Rinse FM)\, and accolades from major popular publications such as Mixmag Magazine.
