Potrebujete sa zbaviť trápnej minulosti, ktorá na vás striehne v najtemnejších šuflíkoch v podobe kaziet Erasure alebo nebodaj Kelly Family? Spravte z nich mediálne umenie! Dvojica umelcov David Strang a Vincent van Uffelen povedie workshop, ktorého východiskovým bodom bude inštalácia Nam June Paika Random Access (1963). Sieť magnetických pásov kaziet však tentokrát nebude náhodne prehrávaná len na základe rozhodnutia diváka – do inštalácie budú vstupovať celkom nové okolnosti a technológie. Denne od 11h do 17h. Výsledok workshopu predvedú jeho účastníci vo štvrtok večer v Enteri. Registrácie na projects@multiplace.sk.
"«Random Access Music»
Since the early 1950s, avant-garde composers have been using magnetic tape to obtain a spectrum of sounds far exceeding the canon of conventional instruments. Obviously, musical notation was worthless in such cases, and Cage developed randomly determined, graphical scores allowing various noises to be assembled into complex tape compositions. In this tape installation, Paik went one step further: the visitor can use the sound head, which has been detached from the tape recorder, to interactively run through the tapes glued to the wall, and constantly vary the sound sequence according to location and speed. This random access to the musical raw material enabled visitors to produce compositions of their own."
