Salon Izidor Kršnjavi (School of Applied Arts and Design Zagreb)
21.3. – 31.3.2017.
Embodiment in art tends to remain invisible. In electronic and digital, audio and visual arts, processes of sound and image production are hidden. The end result is often incomprehensible for the audience.
This genre of art deploys different methods of production and presentation. From hardware hacking to live coding, from live performance to installation.
This project attempts to look at deeper levels of the applied media. The focus of the reflective process is set on methods and tools used for the creation of art. The result is communication capacity building in the cultural domain, reaching out to students, pupils, organizers, artists, theorists, and professionals and the general audience.
Light speaks, light makes music
Emerich Spielmann used these words to present the Superpiano on the Vienna RAVAG radio broadcast in 1929.
In 1931, Leon Theremin developed the first optical sound rhytm machine – Rhytmicon.
In the early 1930s, both the Russian composer Arseny Avraamov and the German filmmaker Oskar Fischinger started drawing sound waves on film.
Daphne Oram created Oramics in the late 1950s. The Austrian composer Max Brand used the principles of the Oramic system to develop the optical synthesizer.
Artists and researchers are invited to illuminate the principles of optical sound and transfer them into the 21st century in a series of exhibitions, workshops, lectures and concerts.
