SUMMARY:Hardware workshop - Wormed Voice with Martin Howse
DESCRIPTION:This workshop will run 11:00 till 17:00 on December 16th & 17th. \n[shopify embed_type=”product” shop=”musichackspace.myshopify.com” product_handle=”hardware-workshop-wormed-voice-with-martin-howse” show=”button-only”] \nBuild your own unique touch-based speech synthesizer and explore the theory and technique of animal and human voice synthesis.  \nWormed Voice is a two day practical workshop exploring the physical\, electronic and software simulated creation of non-human voices and vocalisations. The history of speech synthesis stresses the mundane\, the military and the spectacular\, commencing with Van Kempelen’s 18th century rubber squeaking or speaking machine. The basic principle of simulating the vocal tract through electronic and physical means was submitted to the military demands of compression and encryption\, segmenting out parts of the speech process and reducing redundancy. \nIn the process communication becomes the business of circuit-bent human-worms\, opening human and animal speech to the cut-up\, to stammerings\, stutterings and tics; to an extra-human\, outer-word terrain of numbers burrowed and nibbled by the earthworms.  \nThe workshop will feast on this electronic legacy. Participants will learn the basic principles of voice synthesis and produce a custom-designed touch-speech synthesizer which they can expand at will. \nThis workshop is led by Martin Howse. Martin Howse is occupied with an investigation of the links between the earth (geophysical phenomena)\, software and the human psyche (psychogeophysics) through the construction of experimental situations (performance\, laboratories\, walks\, and workshops)\, material art works and texts. He is equally the creator of the skin-driven audio divination noise module\, The Dark Interpreter\, and the ERD modular synthesizer series. \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. \nIf you have any questions about this event or any of our workshops please contact workshops@stagingmhs.local. \nImage by Ioana Vreme Moser
