SUMMARY:Ritual Laboratory #5; a technology to transform consciousness
DESCRIPTION:We continue our series of participatory rituals throughout summer. Based on the 12 mythic Labours of Herakles. Forming part of an ongoing research and development project\, each event considers the relationship between sound and movement performance\, and altered states of consciousness.  \nEach session of the laboratory focuses on balancing a sequential zodiacal energy. We begin with Aries – The Head (Thoughts) and work down to Pisces – The Feet (Deeds). The summer series includes: \n28th May – Gemini (Polarity) \n25th June – Cancer (Intuition) \n31st July – Leo (Expression) \n30th August – Virgo (Cultivation) \nIn each session we will utilise a variety of techniques that function as rites of passage. \n \nThe embodiment of each myth functions as an interface\, to construct the components of ritual form\, and to explore the subjective impact of trance inducing use of sound\, movement\, light\, scent\, and embodied narrative. \nEach Labour of Herakles as narrative score\, catalyses a dialogue between musicians and performers\, facilitating an immersive experience of the myth. These 12 Labours share significant parallels with the astronomical movement of the Sun\, projected through the symbolism of the zodiacal constellations in a calendar year. Harnessing the cyclical changes in our natural environment as a basis for structure and objectivity\, we aim to fall into rhythm with the cycles of the natural world.  \nAn experimental laboratory of 12 events. No prior knowledge required. Everyone welcome!  \nWe will begin each session  by sharing a discussion regarding the symbolism of the myth\, and how the Labour will play out. Secondly we explore features of trance induction\, hypnotic phenomena and their role in creative practice. Lastly we will perform the myth together\, and share feedback afterwards. \nInstrumentation will vary as we explore the intersection of traditional trance instruments and contemporary production tools. \nThis series is organised by Nicole Bettencourt Coelho. Nicole is a qualified Hypnotherapist\, practicing Sound Therapist and member at Music Hackspace / Somerset House Studios. Presently working with the composition of improvised choreographic score by drawing from her experience as a touring session musician\, to foster an interdisciplinary approach. Conducting an investigation at the intersection of traditional therapeutic instruments and modern production tools\, she is investigating the ability of sound and ritual form to support and direct the transformative power of performance. As well as generating dialogue around the sociological impact of evolving tools on culture and fulfilling creative practice. Current studies focus on communal performance in the context of astronomical myth\, as a technology to transform consciousness. Combining archetypal symbols and storytelling with therapeutic and artistic applications of intuitive sound and movement\, to induce and support inward journeys within a collective experience. Using a variety of techniques to consciously compose and utilise alternate states of awareness\, she seeks to create opportunities to foster a healthy relationship with the creative impulse on an individual and collective level. \nForming part of her therapeutic practice CURVE ASC\, she is currently exploring the interplay of energies moving through the body and the cyclic rhythms of the environment in the context of herbalism. Hosting a series of seasonal sound baths with local herbs. This being an embodied study of the natural rhythms of the dialogue between body and eco-system. A reciprocal dance through time. These are opportunities for reconnection\, restoration and reflection. \nThe venue is located on the ground floor of Somerset House and is fully wheelchair accessible with an accessible toilet. If you have any other access requirements\, please let us know and we will do our best to accommodate them.

SUMMARY:Spatial Sound Meetup #2 with BBC R&D
DESCRIPTION:A new series of monthly meetups taking place at Somerset House Studios\, focusing on new spatial sound technologies\, with talks and discussions around creative uses of spatial and AR audio. \n \nThis meetup will run as a participatory workshop aimed at getting everyone started with the basics of producing spatial sound mixes and rendering them as binaural stereo – using Reaper and the Ambisonic Toolkit. \nThis will cover using mono\, stereo\, and ambisonic sound sources\, applying spatial effects and panning and moving sound sources with automation. \nNo experience with Reaper or ATK is necessary but it’d be useful if you’ve at least a little familiarity with working with digital audio. \nBring a laptop and headphones if you have them! If you don’t\, we’ll pair you up with someone who has the equipment. \nIn addition\, there’ll be a little time for announcements\, presentations and requests for feedback/discussion on your own projects. If you’d like a 5-minute slot to present something or start a discussion\, please let us know! \nThroughout the evenings\, attendees are welcome to ask questions and interact with both the speaker and one another. \nEach session will be hosted by BBC R&D and will feature a presentation by invited guests.   \nBBC R&D has been at the forefront of innovation in media technology since the founding of public service broadcasting in the UK. \nBased in Research Labs in the North and South of the UK\, the department is comprised of just over 200 highly specialist research engineers\, scientists\, ethnographers\, designers\, producers and innovation professionals working on every aspect of the broadcast chain\, from Audiences\, Production and Distribution right through to the Programmes themselves. \nThe venue is located on the ground floor of Somerset House and is fully wheelchair accessible with an accessible toilet.

SUMMARY:Make music with code\, with Joanne Armitage
DESCRIPTION:In this workshop\, Joanne Armitage will show participants how to get started making music with code in SuperCollider\, with specific reference to her own creative practice. SuperCollider is a powerful open-source platform for audio synthesis and algorithmic composition\, used by musicians\, artists\, and researchers working with sound. It is free and open source software available for Windows\, macOS\, and Linux. \nRequirements: Participants should bring a laptop (masOS/Windows/Linux)\, and a pair of headphones. Please install SuperCollider in advance. It can be downloaded for free here. This workshop requires no prior experience with either Supercollider or music production. \n\n \n  \nJoanne is an internationally recognised live coder and contributes to groups including laptop ensemble\, OFFAL and algo-pop duo ALGOBABEZ. In 2019 she curated SXSW’s first Algorave supported by Lush\, PRS Foundation and British Underground. Recent projects include a coding cultural exchange between Yorkshire and Tokyo funded by Arts Council England\, British Council\, Daiwa Foundation and Sasakawa Foundation. As part of British Council’s Amplify programme she gave a workshop-performance at Mutek Argentina. In 2018 she was recipient of Sound and Music’s Composer-Curator fund and is a resident at Somerset House Studios.  \nIn the day time (mostly)\, Joanne is interested in the relationship between digital technologies and our everyday lives. Her work covers areas such as physical computing\, digital methods\, sensory data and critical computing. As a researcher at Cambridge University\, she is part of the Citizen Sense project investigating environmental sensing technologies and citizen engagement. She also lectures in digital media at the School of Media and Communication\, University of Leeds. In 2017 she was awarded the British Science Association’s Daphne Oram award for digital innovation. \nOutside of academia she regularly leads community workshops in physical computing\, live coding and experimental music making. This includes the hackathon and workshop series ‘Automation and Me’ as part of Leeds International Festival 2019\, facilitating activities for artists\, academics\, technologists and publics to explore issues around algorithms and bodies. \nWe can offer a student discount of 10% off this workshop. Please email us for a discount code (workshops@stagingmhs.local). \nThe venue is located on the ground floor of Somerset House and is fully wheelchair accessible with an accessible toilet.
