Proposal description

+++INTRODUCTION+++

During this two-day workshop, you will explore the direct relationship between sound and image.

Using the Pure Data programming environment, you can directly control the vertical and horizontal movements, as well as the brightness, of a beam of light. You will then explore Lissajous figures, 3D models, Rutt-Etra video scan processing, and other audio-driven visual shapes and forms which can be displayed and manipulated in real time on an XY oscilloscope, or with oscilloscope emulating software directly on your laptop.

VECTOR SYNTHESIS is an audiovisual, computational art project using sound synthesis and vector graphics display techniques to investigate the direct relationship between sound+image. It draws on the historical work of artists such as Mary Ellen Bute, John Whitney, Nam June Paik, Ben Laposky, and Steina & Woody Vasulka among many others, as well as on ideas of media archaeology and the creative re-use of obsolete technologies.

+++PARTICIPATION+++

The participation fee for this workshop is EUR 50, with a discount for Kuusi Palaa members. The workshop runs from 11:00 to 17:00 each day.

PLEASE EMAIL YOUR CONFIRMATION to macumbista@gmail.com

If there are fewer than four participants I will probably not host the workshop, so please do confirm in advance.
