"The stimulation of bio-organisms through sensory (aural/visual) and electrical stimulation in feedback loops is presented by programming stimuli in real time and in a definite time-rhythmic sequence — music is art most involved in real-time organization of sensory stimulation." - Manford L. Eaton
MusicMakers Hacklab is a weeklong open, collaborative laboratory hosted by Peter Kirn of Create Digital Music (createdigitalmusic.com) and musician and media artist Leslie Garcia (lessnullvoid.cc). It allows practitioners from a range of disciplines to find new ways of exploring hybrid systems of human body, biology, and sound.
Now entering its 3rd edition within the CTM Festival, the Hacklab takes on the theme Tuning Machines, relating to some of the technological ramifications of CTM 2015 “Un Tune” thematic. Following an open call for artists/performers, scientists, and experimenters, the selected Hacklab participants will collaborate for a few days to build new systems and instruments that refer to the Tuning Machines theme and then perform live with the systems and instruments in this final public showcase.
Funded by the Bundeszentrale für politische Bildung (Federal Office for Political Education), supported by Native Instruments.
