24. September, 2005
Hausmania, Hausmannsgt. 42 Oslo, Norway
An evening of audiovisual performances using custom software to create sound and image in a synaesthetic combination. The concerts are followed by a club night with electronic music and generative club visuals.
* BLIND (NO): Blind is a collaboration between video artist Hans Christian Gilje (known from his work with 242.pilots) and musician Kelly Davis, whose background includes physics, filmandpainting. Gilje uses video processing to create fictionalspacesin the videostream, manipulating the temporal qualities and texture of the image to create a new poetic narrative.
* ERICH BERGER (NO / AT): Berger will perform his work ”Tempest”, a tight and intense composition of sound, noise and light. Electromagnetic radiation generated by images shown on a computer screen is recorded and transformed into sound. The result is a performance where abstract images directly cause the synthesis of sound.
* TINYLITTLEELEMENTS (AT): A duo consisting of Lia and Sebastian Meissner, TinyLittleElements is at the forefront of generative visuals. They combine custom software for visual performance with melodic noise. The visuals are strictly abstract and geometric, responding to the music in real time.
* DJ: DJ Strangefruit and DJ Deadswan will team up to provide the beats.
* VJ SPOON (CZ): Jan Kremlacek from Spoon will VJ with his special EKG monitoring setup, where a participant’s heartbeat is used as input to the live visuals.
* VJ GX (NO): Surprise appearance.
Price: NOK 60. Free for conference participants.
