Making together
I’ve been asked by Stefano Maffei and Susanna Legrenzi to participate to the Making Together event, powered by Logotel for the Milano Design Week on April 17-22.
I will present the new “Machina logotelica”, an installation resulting from an assemblage of scavenged stuff (rumentarium style, ça va sans dire…), motors, hair driers, radioclocks. Custom hardware based on audio control will be used (thanks Guru Francesco Richiardi!)
Rumentario autoedule
I’ve added on Vimeo a short video of the “Rumentario autoedule” installed in Como for Elettrosensi 2012.
In the “Rumentario autoedule” installation the Rumentarium electro-mechanical ensemble, made up of 24 acoustic generators, is coupled with audio analysis capabilities. Two mics capture the surrounding soundscape.
Retrieved pitch and loudness profiles are used to drive the orchestra. As the soundscape around is mostly (even if not only) made up of the same rumentarium, the latter reacts to itself.
Elettrosensi in Como
I’m very happy to be invited to hold on Jan 18/19 2012 a couple of seminars at the Conservatory of Como, for the Elettrosensi cycle of this year. I will speak about audio physical computing, mainly showing a bunch of computationally animated rubbish. The “Rumentario autoedule” installation is included.
VEP in Athens
On Dec 2nd we will be in Athens at Megaron to present the VEP project with a concert using my 8 chans implementation. Helas I would not be there!
