In the first part of this workshop, Lu Yi will introduce Buddhist chanting machines. These are small sound players sold throughout Taiwan, China and Japan that play Buddhist chants on repetitive loops and are often used at religious ceremonies and on special dates. Lu Yi will talk about how people use these machines in both […]
Learn to make music with code using SuperCollider, a powerful, open-source, cross-platform, audio engine and programming language, used not only to create music, but also for machine learning, audio/music reactive installations, performance, interactive systems, research, live-coding and much more. Requirements: Participants should bring a laptop (OSX / Windows/ Linux), and a pair of headphones. Please […]
Following his workshop, Lien-Cheng Wang will deliver an artist talk on his practice around generative art, as well as a performance, titled Horizon. Horizon is an audio-visual performance which is based on an interactive program. This program allows users to enter keywords and it can use the result of images from Google's engine into a […]
Lien-Cheng will teach participants how to build an audio-visual performance with Max MSP. Participants should bring a laptop, and are recommended to have a song and a video in mind that can be manipulated during the workshop. Max MSP is proprietary software but can be used for free for 30 days. It runs on Windows […]
https://youtu.be/abH6AX24cGU Taiwanese artist Yen Tzu Chang presents an artist talk followed by her Whose Scalpel performance. Whose Scalpel is a sound performance combined with visuals and a 3D printed installation, realised with a framework for medical image processing. Mixing several methods from art and science, it is an imagination of the future and presents […]
In this workshop, the artist will share brief research on the formation of the inferno and its connection to society and sound/music culture. Following this, participants will attempt to produce the sound of the inferno, building a sculpture with a glass jar and several layers of copper speakers, designed with different patterns to represent the […]
Following his workshop over the weekend on creative electronics and synth design, we’re hosting a discussion with Casper Electronics (Peter Edwards), founder and synth engineer at Bastl Instruments. Edwards will talk about the hows and whys of synth design, with a focus on the personal and emotional aspects of a traditionally technical medium. Doors for […]
Over the course of 2 days participants will learn about the curious and inspiring behaviour of electricity while building a variety of interactive sound circuits. Prior experience with electronics is very helpful but is not necessary. This workshop will utilise a circuit building tool designed by Edwards called the OMSynth which allows users to start […]
Throughout May, June and July we have Joanne Armitage leading a series of three SuperCollider workshops. These workshops can loosely be thought of as beginner, intermediate and advanced workshops, and can be attended individually or as a complete series. Workshop 1: Synthesis Techniques (May 30th) Workshop 2: Time, structures and pattern (June 19th) Workshop 3: […]
