What do we need to make a radio play? People to read the story, of course. Maybe that's you? And we also need noises, voices and sounds. Maybe even a little music. And above all, a lot of imagination and courage. Last but not least, listeners who make themselves comfortable and listen would of course also be great. So there is certainly something for everyone. So if you want to experience something new, if you enjoy a nice story. If you enjoy reading aloud. If you like sounds and music, or if you just like to listen, then you've come to the right place!
"Eigenklang" is an audio-visual performance collective blurring classical boundaries between audience and artist, concept and coincidence, reality and perception. Their spaceship is open and cozy, full of toys and stimulating visuals. Join the crew for multidimensional experiments, based on interaction and improvisation, manipulating your senses and co-create psychedelic soundscapes of organic, electronic and human sounds between your ears.
The installation plays with the idea of light as a material with properties such as weight, friction and repulsion. The light beams behave like pendulums that are interactively set into oscillation. Each beam generates a sound through its oscillation, which is modulated with the movement and position.
"Will you float, dance or love?" This installative performance is an interplay of performers, light, projections, sounds and the audience. Using an analog phone system, guests can communicate with each other and with the performers. It's all about skill: whoever turns the dial the fastest shares an intimate experience with the performers and drinks the much sought-after MagicDrink.
The Princess realizes that she must move to Berlin when she visits the exhibition "Vulnerable Subjects" in Leipzig. Fortunately, while looking for an apartment, she meets Kasperle, who introduces her to the Wohnungsbot. But even though the Wohnungsbot has already relieved countless people of the symptoms of rent mania, this mission plunges the Wohnungsbot into a crisis of existence, which not only makes him doubt prevailing narratives of automation.The stage adaptation of the software "Wohnungsbot" negotiates the possibilities and consequences of the attempt to solve social problems with technical means.
“We Only Work In Spirals” is a project that brings together the world of music, circus and performance into a ritual of acts. This multidisciplinary experience aims to create multiple interpretations by combining an instant music performance while using the absurd hair hanging technique. The raw sound signals that are instantly created on stage, travel from one performer to the other. They get trapped in loops, creating and enhancing the collective ritual that performers and audience are experiencing, where physicality and intense inner feelings grow.
[Chapeau Club](https://chapeauclub.xyz) erarbeitet seit 2012 immersive Inszenierungen, surreale Performances und Genre sprengende Happenings mit opulenten Kostümen und extremen Bilderwelten. Absurdes Chaos, Persiflage, Techno und Avantgarde zeichnen die Stücke aus. Ziel ist ein zeitgenössisches, partizipatives, sinnliches Theater. Als ‘König:innen’ der mobilen Performance etabliert das Kollektiv ein neues zugängliches Volks- und Stadttheater.
Welcome to the Open Interactive Trash Lab! Join us in creating 5-10 engaging artifacts with a connecting theme or storyline. We provide the space, materials, and knowledge to get started, including introductory sessions on hardware and software. Let's have fun and bring our ideas to life in this collaborative project!
Kunst der Kurven is a mix between an Installation, Workshop and a Performance dealing with the topic of visualisation, sonification and enactment of algebraic structures known under name of Elliptic Curves (EC). ECs are fundamental for modern asymmetric cryptography, cryptocurrencies etc., but for those who know these Abelian varieties better, they can also be considered as beautiful structures on their own. Seemingly chaotic on the first sights, ECs encode and exhibit certain symmetries which can be visualised - or even sonified - to produce results of non-negligible artistic and aesthethic value.
During the workshop part, participants will be asked to install the Open-Source System [Sagemath](https://www.sagemath.org/). Subsequently, main concepts (Finite Field, Group Law, Quadratic and Cubic Character) will be briefly introduced and then, peoples will start generating, plotting first visuals and sonifying first sequences. In the meanwhile, children will be charged with task of creating the "frames" from surrounding bio- and electro- materials. 5 years of free-time experiments of Daniel "hromi" Hromada (Juniorprofessor of Digital Education at Berlin University of the Arts) will be thus presented, for the first (and maybe also for the last) time. In order to provide sufficient mindfuck experience for everyone involved, the Installation - Workshop - Performance will be encoded in a mix of English - German - French - Slavic - Python and Sage languages.
Pasar = market Senggol = nudge (Indonesian suburban night market full of chaotic interactions and people pushing around in dense loud environment) We suggest a participatory art installation that is done through collaboration with people who join us throughout the days of the Camp in a workshop setting, where they learn and make basic electronic units for interactive sound art and kinetics. Collaborative practicies are very common in Indonesia, both as a need to survice but also as a deeply culturally rooted concept. We are happy to be able to invite Helmi Hardian, from Surabaya, Indonesia, as "Hacker-in-Residence" to spend the summer with us in our hackerspace, Bitwäscherei, in Zürich, and join the Homemade Summercamp by SGMK and other activities. We have been working together in Indonesia, for HackteriaLab, and many other activites on DIY electronics and SoundArt, mostly doing workshops and PCB geeking. Besides Helmi and myself dusjagr, we will invite 3 other mentors and constructors to help us developing the art installation and support the workshops.
Pentagame was already an attraction on the last camp, where it has found many lovers. These helped with analysis, morals, and also funding, and we are here to say thank you (and play more Pentagame of course). For this, we bring a "garden pentagame", a magnetic 3-D-Pentagame, and a walk-in-structure in the shape of a trapezoid pentagon-antiprisma, another visualiastion of the underlying 3-dimensional structure. This is a space to meditate about the pentagonal structure of Life, the Universe, and everything - and of course to play more Pentagame. Bring on the conenders!
Some more info is scattered on [https://pentagame.org](https://pentagame.org/), including links to files and to a downloadable AI that can play the game (and will beat you). The latter is particularly intersting since we had analytically proven that the game, even though it seems simple and is relatively short, has enough depth to always remain challengening and never get boring. Now the AI confirms these results: even if you let it play against itself on "full steam", sometimes the first mover and sometimes the second mover gets to win.
The magic of creative coding. 1. During the day, we would like to showcase the installation “Works for Everybody” as an interactive installation for people of all ages to enjoy exploring. 2. During selected timeslots we organize creative coding workshops that introduce people to live coding, algorithmic art & music, and interactive development. It will be creatively empowering for the participants, great fun, and people can take away a lot of new knowledge and inspiration. We plan for these workshops to have a length of 2-6 hours and to be for 2-5 people. 3. Participants can share their results in the evening, when we plan to setup a small open “algorave” stage for live performances, live-coding music and/or visuals, VJ-ing, and so on. We would also encourage other CCC visitors to join in and share their own creative coding projects that are built using other platforms such as TidalCycles/strudel and SonicPi (for music live coding) or CablesGL for web based realtime visuals, just to name a few.
In a science-driven workshop, participants enhance a story collecting device, already used in 15 festivals, for secure implementation in peace-building with former FARC combatants. They anonymously share their stories, fostering a collective experience of connection and sharing. Voice stories are anonymized and made available to the community for various purposes.
Since 2019, La Quadrature du Net has been trying to raise awareness of the spread of new surveillance technologies serving the police within cities. After 4 years of documentation and analysis, we're using a sensitive approach to propose a schematic immersion into the "Technopolice". By our sound and light installation, we invite the spectator to experience the oppressive, normalizing and excluding effects of police dynamics in a fictional city, deployed for the duration of the camp.
The author will read the short story ["The Game of Rat and Dragons"](https://www.gutenberg.org/files/29614/29614-h/29614-h.htm) by Cordwainer Smith, alias Paul Myron Anthony Linebarger who has left a small but impressive number of short stories and novels. In this story he describes the first Link of two brains, between cats and humans. He is considered one of science fiction's more influential and talented authors but his completely unknown. He used his experiences in the WWII to write the book Psychological Warfare (1948), regarded by many in the field as a classic text. He had a big influence on Ursula K. Le Guin, who won the Hugo award. Other stories cover the first honeypot as in "Mother Hitton's Littul Kittons" or the first description of a techno dancer. As he is nearly forgotten now, his work is not covered by copyright any more and his stories can be used to create further art.
We will give a running workshop where people can pop by to create creatures, headpieces, accessories or whatever they want to build with trash. We bring material, tools, sewing machine and would like to collect material also on the festival. It is always nice to have a connection to the place we are.
