Blog

I try to keep up on things, but find it hard to keep track of all the events, email lists, news blah blah etc. You end up spending longer finding out about things than doing actual work!

Which is why blogs are good, because you can organise them and have everything in one place.

I don't want to end up spamming this blog, so I've made one dedicated to opportunities, resources, artist videos etc.. and will put as much as I can on there.

It's early days, but if anyone wants to seriously co-edit it with me, or contribute, let me know.

Interview with Liliane Lijn

there's an interview with Liliane Lijn from her showing@ AV festival here.

I've been following her work for a while, she's interesting to me because of her mythical approach to technology. I met her once after she'd come back from a residency at NASA - she'd just made a rainbow on san francisco bay using optics!!

sound request

Hi,

I am after a wide variety of ambient recordings of home in the evening - can anyone help?

It needs to be 5 minutes duration, ambient / background noise, quality not too important - in fact difficult to make out sounds are good. Conversation, TV, appliances, music from radio / stereo, doors opening / closing, cooking anything and everything as long as it is indoors.

You can either just give the file to me on Thursday / email / upload it if the file isn't too big or upload it onto this forum (but you'd have to register) :

Cheers :)

re: help!

I think what u mean is a zoetrope - they had a "digital" one at the decode exhibition.

Help!!!!

I can't think of the name of a device that was invented to give the visual impresion of movement.

a drum with pictures on the inside and slits on the outside that when you looked through them gave the impresion the images inside were moving.
I really can't think of the name. have tried several approaches to searches but just can't get anything.

any ideas???

Sonic Wallpaper

i dunno if anyone is interested but i was playing around with a program that visualizes audio [spectrogram] but this one's in real time. It looks a tad retro, but hey.

Anyway I thought it looked like wallpaper. Real time wallpaper. Which you could do, e.g. the walls updating to the sound of people in the room [or sid pissing about on an analogue synth..] Or I dunno, maybe I'll print it out as physical wallpaper for analogue/digital? or something....nah its all been done before - but Somewhere in it there;s a good idea.... i dunno.. i just thought I'd say something... hello!

Great robot

Great robot Sid and a Happy Easter to you to0!
