Description

A diverse live-coding concert program will kick off the »on-the-fly: Live-Coding Hacklab«. Top-class international guests will present their individual approaches to the performance art of live-coding during this concert.

CodeKlavier, »ARquatic«, (2019 – 21), ca. 15’

»ARquatic« by CodeKlavier is an audio and augmented reality experience in which live music is transformed into fantasy plants that unfold in front of the audience’s eyes. As the name suggests, CodeKlavier allows Dutch pianist Anne Veinberg to program through her playing. Together with Felipe Ignacio Noriega and Patrick Borgeat (HfM Karlsruhe) she developed the piece »ARquatic«, with which the concert evening begins.

Kıvanç Tatar »Coding the Latent No. 1«, (2022), ca. 20', (binaural) Premiere

Kıvanç Tatar invites the audience into a 'glitchy' and noisy world of AI-synthesized sounds distributed on 47 speakers with his piece 'Coding the Latent No.1'. His live performance combines live coding with artificial intelligence-based audio generation. (binaural; premiere)

Luka Prinčič »Brief Intro to Piano is Forte Memory«, (2022), 15’ Premiere

The composition »Brief Intro to Piano is Forte Memory« is based on a childhood memory of Slovenian live coder Luka Prinčič. The piece, which will premiere at the concert, is a live coded, partially improvised composition that recalls the protected spaces of childhood and the perceived trust therein. (premiere)

Blaz Pavlica »Modulating Spaces«, Improvisation, 20', (binaural)

»Modulating Spaces« is a live coded spatial audio performance by Blaž Pavlika. Spatial sound opens up a multitude of possibilities to work with sound as a physical medium. Live coding, in turn, makes it possible to shape the medium »on-the-fly«. A virtual spherical sound space is created, which is constantly reshaped with each performance. (binaural)

CNDSD & Iván Abreu »autoconstruccion«, (2021-22), 18’30’’ Premiere

For the project »autoconstruccion« CNDSD & Iván Abreu explore the architectural notion of autoconstruction using machine learning processes. This results in the almost cinematographic design of a three-dimensional virtual environment coupled to a binaural musical narrative. (premiere)

Gaia Leandra »Necrobiopsi«, (2021), ca. 9’

The concert concludes with the presentation »Necrobiopsi«, a bio-art project by Gaia Leandra that develops new narratives at the intersection of art and science. Against the backdrop of planetary change, Leandra contemplates the invisible micro-world of organisms and ponders an age after humankind.
