GLOBALE: Tangible Sound

Thu, September 24 – Sun, September 27, 2015

Ludger Brümmer
Within the four-day »Tangible Sound« festival at the ZKM, the results of the EU project »European Art Science and Technology Network« (EASTN) will be presented as part of a symposium, in concerts, presentations and installations. The focus will be on subjects such as augmented reality, animation and multi-sensory arts.

As a high point a sound installation will be presented by the ZKM | Institute for Music and Acoustics (IMA) in collaboration with the International Ensemble Modern Academy (IEMA). Musicians and dancers position themselves in the ZKM atria and can be freely selected by the public. Each visitor possesses a Smartphone or a Tablet, with the help of which they are able to perceive specific sounds via headphones which merge with those sounds in the space. To this end, visual, physical models can be triggered on specifically predetermined sites so that a new space-sound experience emerges with various virtual levels.

With the »Virtual Sound Gallery«, an audible and accessible museum of sound will also be presented for the first time, which positions sounds and music in the architecture of a building. After the festival, this new development of the IMA can be seen at the ZKM_Atrium 8 + 9 until April 2016 with new sound content.
 
The theme of »Tangibility« offers the basis for the symposium that is taking place on Saturday and Sunday. Nowadays, new interfaces play an increasing role. The development of methods, which can make algorithms, simulations and other mathematical processes perceptible and tangible and bring them to life, is essential here. The latest results, which the FabLab Barcelona, ACROE in Grenoble and the universities of Cardiff and Corfu are obtaining in this field, will be presented at the symposium.
 
Between Friday and Sunday, visitors can also discover exciting installations by our project partners, which illustrate the themes of the symposium and make these tangible on-site. A highlight of the symposium will be the »The machine to be another« performance by the BeAnotherLab collective, which can be seen on both Saturday and Sunday following the lecture program.
 
The transmedia »LOST« project by Jagoda Szmytka, realised in cooperation with the Warsaw Autumn festival of contemporary music, can be found being exhibited and performed in the media theatre, together with a live transmission from Warsaw. Furthermore, on Friday and Saturday, the International Ensemble Modern Academy will be presenting new productions from a young generation of composers, such as Sergej Maingardt and Jacques Zafra, together with works by established composers such as Pierre Boulez, York Höller and Emmanuel Nunes.
 
The concert on Sunday will close the festival. Works, commissioned as part of the »European Art Science and Technology Network« for the Sound Dome, will be premiered here.

Science and Technology Network« (EASTN)

The significance of digital technologies for approaches to artistic work is rapidly increasing – from the development of artistic objects through to the possibilities of media preparation. However, the knowledge of digital technologies, both among the general public as well as among many artists, still remains relatively low. Thus, the objective of the EU project »European Art Science and Technology Network« (EASTN) is to establish open access to digital creativity: and it is through this that well-founded knowledge on current artistic developments and the technology on which it is based is mediated. Here, focus is placed on the subject of »Tangibility«: Methods and applications, which facilitate interaction with digital media via sensory stimulus and gestures with and thereby create connections between real and virtual worlds.
