Course in group interactive electroacoustic music

An interactive electroacoustic music course being held in London allows musicians to explore ways of working together to make live electroacoustic music. Working in small groups, the course participants create various systems in which live improvisation can take place. Issues such as gesture mapping, group control, sound spatialisation and instrument/ interface design are explored. The course uses a base of specialised Max/Msp programs, and an assortment of interfaces which can be customised during the course. Interfaces include the Icube, a blackboard sized touch sensitive screen. game controllers , keyboard, video. For further information about the course contact Thomas Gardner : 23thomas@onetel.com">123thomas@onetel.com

Xperiment >L

Xperiment >L is a monthly series about women in electronic music live performances, film/video screenings, discussions & workshops. This months gathering is Friday 10 september, in Rotterdam, The Netherlands featuring AGF+SUE.C with electronic poetry & live video. AGF is in love with language, poetry, communicating impressions and experiences, and views our society of today in a philosophical but also a politically critical way. Her most recent project 'Westernization Completed' is a refined and fascinating mix of text (spoken and sung) and electronic music, giving you the feeling you're introduced to a highly personal, self-created universe. Sue Costabile in her turn likes to mix the organic with the synthetic, analogue techniques with digital processes. With these images projected on a large format, the monumental church space of Arminius might even be transformed for a while into this personal and very special universe of AGF+Sue C. The night is in cooperation with Arminius (opening of season) and the TRACER-festival of TENT. and Witte de With ( www.arminius.nu ) and http://www.cbk.rotterdam.nl/TENT
