Konsert For Grønland (Concert for Greenland) is an important add both to the new norwegian scenic art stage and the academic theater environment. Here artistic history and new technology meet in a chanting bombardment of the senses, that challenges both artistic and academic approaches. The complexity of the work calls for many different ways of enterpretation.
--------------------------------------------------------------

i.jpg)
Gintas never felt in a race with the western electronic standard, he also never suffered from what he calls "a complex of the former eastern block".

10.30 Soundscape;
Robin Støckert, civil engineer, Trondheim
The interactive, 3D audio guide.

TLM
The TLM (Transmission Line Matrix) method is one of many numerical methods for solving the wave equation (the wave equation describes the propagation of an acoustical wave through a fluid) A MATLAB graphical user interface that lets the user draw geometrical elements and put in different sound sources is developed for a 2D-implementation of the TLM-method.
11.20 John Hopkins, artist, nomadic
Drawing technologies into a sustainable human practice:
open source living
An awareness of the fundamentals of technological implementation has deep implications on the possibilities for human connection and creative human action. what are those fundamentals? what is the underlying need to utilize a technology? what are the invisible alienating prices we pay for technological 'progress'? why are we willing to pay such a cost? what is the pathway for integrating technologies into a sustainable life practice? what is the source of creative action?
11.50 Hilde og Bård Tørdal, artists, Oslo
Artist's Talk
We will talk about our works and our experiences with art and technology. What functions and what doesn´t. How is it possible to make a technical apparatus work during the whole exhibition? A short description of our next project.
