<blink> is a multi faceted music and interactive arts event, offering a
taste of current trends in VJ culture and the rapidly developing
relationship between art and technology. A exciting range of DJ's from the
North West have also been invited to drive <blink> into the early hours of
the morning playing funky house, breaks, drum n bass and techno.
Background on the feature acts:
Socket are a Bristol-based media collective who work with generative &
interactive systems to create video-sonic experiments that span
performance, installation & the web. I Am The Mighty Jungulator is both
the software and the live component of socket. Jungulator is an audio-
visual engine that fuses DJ and VJ tools into a real-time interface, along
with algorithms that allow the software to take creative decisions
itself. Samples of their down-tempo drum n bass and eclectic sounds can
be heard on the website: http://www.socketlab.net
thePooch.com: a technocratic interactive performance arts group who refuse
to recognise the boundaries between art and science. Pooch has come
together through a shared interest in the boundaries that exist between
art and technology with the intention of exploring the interplay between
technology, art and the environment via non-traditional user interfaces.
Their background in interactive interface technology design has put them
in an ideal position to develop some interactive, experiential pieces,
which have the objective of providing pure experience to the users.
The Arch Project: Born in Russia, but currently living in Japan, Vokoi
Kazunovski is the founding member of the Arch Project. After working as an
architect, he began his career in music through an interest in computer
programming, Max, MSP, Nato, Jitter and SC. He collaborates with a range of
performers, such as Richard Divine, POLE, KID606, and discom. He was also
the initiator of the Japanese techno/ electronica festival "METAMORPHOSE.
At <blink>, Vokoi will be working with artist, Anagma. The performance is
an exploration of real-time synchronization of image to sound:
