PURE.BERGER PERFORMANCE.

 

PURE.BERGER performance på Kunstforeningen, 1. etg, (kafé Ni Muser), i morgen lørdag 28. feb. kl. 20.00.

GRATIS INNGANG!

Velkommen!-)

PURE.BERGER (A/NOR)

is a collaboration between PURE (Sound) and BERGER(Visuals) that started in 2002.

Interlinked performance environments enable them to create an audiovisual entity. Taking “playing not on a stage” as a proposition shifts the character of the performances more into the direction of cinema and installation. Their idea is to create temporary spaces. Where modernists refered to architecture as a space of encircled light, their space is constructed of light and sound itself.

LIVE RADIO

I morgen, fredag 27.02 klokken 20:00 – 21:00, sender studentradioen LIVE fra Blæst med TEKS ombord.

Jose Gonzales kommer for å spille og slå av en prat, før sin konsert på Blæst samme kveld, Pure.Berger snakker om elektronisk kunst -og gir smakebiter fra noe av det de presenterer på Kunstforeninga, lørdag, I tillegg blir det besøk fra den trøndersk-amerikanske poeten og musikeren Matt Burt.

MAX/ JITTER WORKSHOP.

TEKS inviterer til workshop/ grunnkurs i MAX/ JITTER med Peter Votava, Wien.

Mandag 01. mars – torsdag 04. mars, fra kl. 10.00 – 17.00 hver dag i TEKS´ lokaler.

MAX/ JITTER er et av de ledende objekt-orienterte programmerings språkene som egner seg for sanntids lyd og video interaksjon. Workshopen legges opp som introduksjonskurs i tillegg til oppfølging og veiledning av mer komplekse prosjekter for de som ønsker det. For nybegynnere gjelder det at man har grunnleggende kunnskap i bruk av digital video og Mac/PC. Viderekommende bes ta med seg prosjekter/ idéer for (videre)utvikling. Se under for nærmere presentasjon.

Workshopen holdes på engelsk av Peter Votava, kunstner bosatt i Wien. Han underviser i MAX/ JITTER på Kunstakademiet i samme by. Peter hadde kurs i MAX/ JITTER på TEKS i fjor med god respons fra deltakerne.

Kursavgift kr.400,- for 4 intense dager!-) Skriftlig påmelding til teks@teks.no

Kunstakademiet sponser sine studenter med hele deltakeravgiften.

Begrenset plass, vær rask! Fordel med egen datamaskin.

About MAX:

MAX is a programming language suitable for artistic purposes like realtime sound and visual environments, interactive sound/video/network based art and realtime 3D works.

With it´s easy to learn graphic interface for writing the code it is much easier and faster to learn and work with than most other languages and for this it´s suitable for writing software for single tasks in a day but also allows to build complex environments for controlling virtually any mix of electronic media.

Originally coming from the fields of midi controlled music MAX expanded into digital audio signal processing with it´s MSP addition when Mac´s became fast enough to handle all the audio processing themselves.

In 2002 cycling74, the vendor of MAX, released JITTER, a set of objects that enable MAX/MSP to handle any kind of matrix-organised data and optimised but not limited to videomaterial coming from any source. It also includes drawing processes and supports OpenGL based 3D material. Jitter is fully integrated in MAX/MSP allowing any imaginable flow and interactions of data between the worlds of sounds and visuals.

currently MAX/MSP/JITTER consists of 500+ objects (functions) with another 500+ free 3rd party objects available for download on the net.

About the workshop:

Starting with examples of often needed functionalities we will go through the three fields of image generation/manipulation with MAX: algorithmbased moving graphics, working with movies, and OpenGL based 3D works by creating some basic patches. We will then discuss the concepts of MAX and JITTER on a general level and also dig deeper into various programming techniques for solving complex projects. At the end of the workshop the attendies should have the knowledge to be able to continue their work independently and a pool of examples/prototypes as basis for future developments.

Requirements:

basic experience with mac´s for creative means

basic knowledge of digital video

interest in getting into the strange world of software creating

Teacher:

peter votava. musician and artist living in vienna, austria.

Working under the pseudonym “pure” he started producing electronic music in 1991 under the influence of the then innovative energy of techno releasing more than 20 vinyl records. Fading to more abstract music around 97 also his way of production changed from vintage analogue gear to software based techniques. By switching to MAX/MSP more than 5 years ago he started with creating his own instruments for studio production, live shows, and as integrated parts of bigger projects like A SOPHISTICATED SOIREE. Most of the material he released since 1999 on labels like MEGO(A), STAALPLAAT(NL) and his own label DOC heavily depends on MAX/MSP based works. He is teaching MAX/MSP/JITTER at the University of Applied Arts in vienna.
