      Axis

      Daniel Belton / New Zealand

      AXIS - anatomy of space - creates a unique fusion of music and dance film for dome cinema. AXIS is a collaboration between Good Company Arts and renowned artists Joyce Beetuan Koh, PerMagnus Lindborg, Tanya Carlson, Jac Grenfell, Donnine Harrison and artists of the Royal New Zealand Ballet with artistic director Daniel Belton. We are each made up of photos. Photons are particles of light. Light is inspiration. Every space has an 'anatomy'. The visualization of sound for AXIS arrives through a music notation system synchronized to the generation of pure light - expanded points and lines. This virtual acoustic architecture creates a dialogue with the dancing figure - illuminating song cycles in a cosmic choreography of light.

      The River is Everywhere at Once

      Mark Cypher / Australia
      Murdoch University

      The Twitter, tweet refers to a point in time that takes on a new form and meaning when viewed in different contexts. When seen in this way, a tweet contributes to an expanded sense of place as one that is a composite of space and time, network and process; or in Michel Serres's terms a topology. The emergence of new topologies and their connotations in a tweet's re-translation in new contexts is revealed in the asynchronous, overlapping and cyclical flow of our connections in different networks. The net-art work “The river is everywhere at once” references how tweets move us to a point in time that is quickly made composite, ambiguous and unanticipated through the ever-changing nature of our relations in a network.

      Part of History (Latin American Electroacoustic Music)

      Ricardo Dal Farra / Argentina - Canada

      This is a concert (or an installation) focusing on recovering and make known part of the history of electroacoustic music from Latin American. The political and economic instability in many Latin American countries have been deeply affecting the life of its inhabitants for decades. Support for artistic activities has usually been postponed to solve urgent social problems. In spite of that, the development in the region of the electronic arts in general and the electroacoustic music in particular, is really astounding.

      Zwolftonform

      Andreas Lutz / Germany

      Following the formal rules of dodecaphony, for Zwölftonform twelve consecutive titles are composed exclusively with twelve consecutive frequencies. The basic structure for each title is made up to twelve different sound samples from a generated sine waveform. Built on this basis, these arrangements reference and illustrate especially over time the complexity and increasing compression of the original shape. Following the serial character of the composition concept, the titles were published consecutively as EPs.

      Bodyscape

      Luca Forcucci / Switzerland
      with support from The Swiss Arts Council Pro Helvetia
      The project is a site-specific electroacoustic composition. The performance space and its architectural resonating and spatial characteristics are included. The main idea focuses on the body of a dancer as the main sonic source. The sound recordings of two performances in San Francisco and Switzerland were then composed at NOTAM in Oslo Norway, leading to a piece intended to be played in the dark and thus magnifying the sonic memories of the audience. The project includes fifteen days' field recordings at the border of Botswana, Limpopo Region, South Africa with a biologist and composer (Francisco Lopez). I conducted the research further as an expedition in other regions of South Africa on the basis of a text of the Swiss writer Friedrich Dürrenmatt (The Viral Epidemic).

      Metatopia 4.0 - Algoricene

      Jaime Del Val / Spain

      METATOPIA is a nomadic, interactive & performative environment for outdoors & indoors spaces that merges dynamic physical & digital architectures, with 3D and multisensory immersion, focusing on indeterminacy, unpredictability and open-ended relation to bodies and surrounding environment, an indeterminate space of emergent behaviors and movements that defies prediction and control in the Big Data Era.

      Meeting 2 - Performance of the Data Sthethoscope for Complex Networks of FRMI Data and Chess Board

      Scot Gresham-Lancaster and Roger Malina / USA

      The performance is in honor of the celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Nine Evening performances in 1966 where prominent artists and Bell Labs engineers performed in public in New York. The performance used both the data and the software developed for a data stethoscope project that is associated with ongoing research with a team of Neuroscientists at the Center for Vital Longevity Studies at UTDallas.

      oneone

      Daniel Belton / New Zealand

      OneOne has been described as a masterwork of beauty and power - radical in its combination of innovative new media and ancient cultural knowledge. The human figures in OneOne shift through geometric virtual stone-form containers and suggest the presence of breath in the soundscape. This creates a pictorial representation of air movement inside the river stones, which are blown and drummed to make sound.
