[NetBehaviour] Avadance, caught.
Avadance, caught. In 1996 there was Kyoko Date in Japan. Shortly after, virtual models. Around then, Diki in Korea. Shortly after, Adam. Around then in both Korean and Japan, virtual idols. Kyoko's big song, Love Communication. Kyoko's big number, dancing in Manhattan. Kyoko is textured wire-frame. She dances across film/video images of the Brooklyn Bridge. She dances in front of the Plaza or the Waldorf-Astoria. She dances in crowds. Her movements are frenetic, angular, energized. She dances fast. In the mid 200/0s, filtered and rewritten motion capture software imitated and extended Kyoko's dance. The new dance was avadance. The new avatar was Julu Twine. Avadance was imported into the virtual world Second Life. Foofwa d'Imobilite took up and extended Twine's avadance. Julu Twine took up Foofwa d'Imobilite's extensions. Avadance caught on. Kira Sedlock - credited with the name 'avadance' - taught avadance to fellow students in the West Virginia University dance department. Avadance spread everywhere. Foofwa d'Imobilite returned to the origin. Foofwa dreams of Kyoko Date modified by Julu Twine. Foofwa performs avadance. Again and again, videography attempts the impossible: record avadance. It's tiresome. Controlled conditions were used in the Mark Morris studios. Julu Twine performed the Boojum ritual music. Blue Carter sang 'I wonder what Kansas will be like.' Foofwa d'Imobilite performed recorded avadance. Avadance was long, angular. The file was huge. Julu Twine compressed the file. The result: http://www.alansondheim.org/avadance.mp4 . Clarity is questionable but the movement is there. The original - about a gigabyte in size. The copy - 30 meg. Give you an idea. watch his hands. ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour

[NetBehaviour] William Latham's inaugural : Tuesday, Oct. 27, 5h30pm
(please distribute at UCL Rebellion, etc.) http://www.gold.ac.uk/calendar/?id=3185 Lecture in the Ian Gulland Lecture Theatre, with reception afterwards. Whitehead Building nearest train station: New Cross Gate Computer art, games and business *Inaugural Lecture by Professor William Latham, Professor of Computing* Before and after the lecture selected works will be displayed from the Mutator2:- DNA to 3D Organic Forms Exhibition (shown at The Medical Research Council in 2007) All welcome. Please RSVP to Warden's Office at inaugur...@gold.ac.uk or on 020 7919 7033 In this lecture William Latham will chart the course of his work from its roots in traditional Fine Art, through his early hand drawn evolutionary drawing through to his work as a Research Fellow at IBM UK Scientific Centre in Winchester from 1987 to 1993. It is there he developed his pioneering Mutator computer art style, and he will expand on its worldwide exposure at the SIGGRAPH conference and touring exhibitions around the world. He will then cover his commercial work; founding a software development studio and its projects in the music and computer games industry over a 13 year period with Universal Studios, SONY , Virgin and Nokia and later due diligence work for banks and investors. William will then talk about his work since joining Goldsmiths, University of London, and restarting the Mutator 2 Project there which had been dormant for 13 years. He will also discuss the new Mutator 2 genetics project with the Centre for bioinformatics at Imperial College and the broadening scope of Mutator 2 moving into 3D Design and architecture. Though the talk is chronological it will cover a mixture of art, creative, technical, research, management and business threads and William will aim to share some of the sharper personal insights from the journey so far, and the importance of collaborative work. -- Professor Frederic Fol Leymarie Goldsmiths College Computing Dept.

[NetBehaviour] Announcing Vague Terrain 15: .microsound
Announcing Vague Terrain 15: .microsound The latest of edition of Vague Terrain is dedicated to celebrating the tenth anniversary of the .microsound community. Guest curated by the American composer Kim Cascone, the issue provides a range of commentary and context on sub-atomic musical aesthetics and a window into this globally distributed community of electronic musicians. In Cascone's own words .microsound is a fertile middle ground between the ivory tower of sterile academia and the seizure-inducing din of the dance club. For those unacquainted with this zone of musical production, this collection of work provides a perfect introduction. Featuring text video contributions by Ben Neill, Charles Turner, Dextro, Joanna Demers, Pere Villez, Thanos Chrysakis, Thomas Bey William Bailey and William L. Ashline. Feature audio contributions from Mike Rooke, Lubrication, Ronnie Cramer, [ruidobello], Richard Lainhart, sound art, TomDjll, Brett Ian Balogh, Scant Intone, Yota Morimoto, Jorge Castro, Joaquín Gutiérrez Hadid, Francesco Rosati, Asférico, Water Falls, Yann Novak, John Hanes, Epoch_Collapse, Jhenner Gayap Benadrilled, Skjølbrot, Markus Jones, Jon Hawken, Adern X Fades 4:38, Julien Ottavi, Vanessa Rossetto, Kim Cascone, Larnie Fox, eddie135, Di.J Crisis, shg, Cheryl E.

[NetBehaviour] back and forth music
back and forth music passing techniques: i was dissatisfied with the sound of the cura cumbus, with strings set in three doubled courses tuned a fourth apart. i changed them to lighter saz strings, changed the lower course into octaves instead of unison, and retuned the instrument to cfc'. i reset and repaired the bridge and lowering to two millimeters at the octave. finally, i reset the neck position. i can now play with extensive hammering on and off, without the 'booming' sound that was characteristic of the instrument. i recorded cured1.mp3 and cured2.mp3. cured1 explores the changes i made with new odd techniques that are feasible now; cured2 pushes the limit of the riff at the end of cured1. both of these are 'nerve-jangling.' finally i took the techniques to the di giorgio classical guitar, producing di1-di4 which surprised me in their odd beauty. they're given in reverse order, di1 recorded last, a slow and simple mellow piece. the other three indicate a range of melody and timbre, confined of course to the western twelve-tone scale, which the cura cumbus escapes. but the amazing sound of the guitar compensates for this; the timbre range is amazing. the four guitar pieces are probably my best to date; the two cura cumbus are probably my most raucous. give them a listen and enjoy. - http://www.alansondheim.org/di1.mp3 http://www.alansondheim.org/di2.mp3 http://www.alansondheim.org/di3.mp3 http://www.alansondheim.org/di4.mp3 http://www.alansondheim.org/cured1.mp3 http://www.alansondheim.org/cured3.mp3 older, going down soon http://www.alansondheim.org/above.mp4 http://www.alansondheim.org/falling.mp4 (new version) recent http://www.alansondheim.org/avadance.mp4 thanks for looking - ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour

[NetBehaviour] technésexual - mixed reality live audio performance in Montreal, photos and video
http://artivistic.org/en/content/video-techn%C3%A9sexual-micha-c%C3%A1rdenas-and-elle-mehrmand-turnon http://bang.calit2.net/tts/2009/10/24/video-of-technesexual-in-montreal-at-artivistic-turnon/ Performed in Montreal at Artivistic TURN*ON. In technésexual, Micha Cárdenas and Elle Mehrmand commit playful erotic acts in physical and virtual space simultaneously, using devices to amplify the sound of their heartbeats for the two audiences. An electrocardiogram was used to monitor the heart rate with an Arduino/Freeduino, playing a recording of the heartbeat at the correct rate using Puredata. The sound is used here to bridge the two spaces, finding ways of exploring the space between realities. DIY biometrics are used to bridge realities with audio, beyond the usual visual approaches to augmented reality or augmented virtuality.
