transmediale 2012 →
Transmediale 2012 is an in/compatible being. Incompatibility is the condition that arises when things are not working together. With transmediale 2012, we are investigating the productive and destructive sides of incompatibility as a fundamental condition for cultural production in times of crisis. In this context transmediale 2012 calls for a transversal approach. With our theme in/compatible...

Resynth v2 →
A very correct update of the legendary in-tracker synth experience.
No stupid heavy-metal interface to distract your imagination… 4 efficient, layered wavetable oscillators. Sounds like they are aliased at the top to avoid nyquist foldown, and at the bottom end to avoid quantisation errors.
Basically, that means killer bass source, full pressure on every pitch, and in your face...

Infinite Music - Adam Harper
Adam Harper - Infinite Music - Zero Books
Adam Harper finally sees his first book published this month. I think its a very important text for composers today and in the future, and for disillusioned listeners who may feel the need to re-engage with the massive significance of music and music creation in our times.
I think there has been way too much dumbing-down or over simplification of the...

from U B U W E B:
Year: 2005 Time: 52 mins Music: Luc Ferrari, Jean-Philippe Collard-Neven, Vincent Royer Shot shortly before Luc Ferrari’s demise, Facing his Tautology has the fundamental merit of avoiding the temptation of a sentimentalist epitaph mode. Indeed, the fact that the film’s subtitle alludes to this sad coincidence may perhaps, given the general tone of the...

delora.com: Is Kyma Relevant? →
You see Kyma is less a product or tool and more a way of working, a sound alchemist’s lifestyle so to speak. Acquiring Kyma and then using its included sounds (and others from the community) is a legitimate and fruitful course, but it only scratches the surface. The full benefit comes only after many months of use, practice, and study. The journey though is exciting and you never...

entschwindet und vergeht:
“One of the riots took place right outside my house in “London’s Fashionable East End”, and as well as going outside to have a look at what was burning (along with a sizable cross-section of the local population), I also, as you’d expect from a pretentious hipster, made an audio recording of the helicopters that were thundering around...
