Network as Material: An Interview with Julian Oliver. An Interview with Julian Oliver By Taina Bucher. I met the Berlin-based media artist and programmer Julian Oliver in Toronto as part of the Subtle Technologies festival, where he taught a workshop on the Network as Material. The aim of the workshop reflects Oliver’s artistic and pedagogical philosophy nicely; to not only make people aware of the hidden technical infrastructures of everyday life but to also provide people with tools to interrogate these constructed and governed public spaces.

Julian Oliver, born in New Zealand (anyone who has seen him give a talk will know not to mistake him for an Australian) is not only an extremely well versed programmer but is increasingly as equally knowledgeable with computer hardware. His background is as diverse as the places he has lived and the journeys it has taken him on. Julian started out with architecture but became increasingly interested in electronic art after working as Stelarc’s assistant on 'Ping Body', Auckland,1996. JO: Definitely. Up, not North - Automatypewriter. The Automatypewriter is a typewriter that can type by itself: It can also detect what’s being typed on it. It can be used to send text to and/or receive text from a computer via USB. It was designed as a platform for playing interactive fiction games, in particular to play custom software being developed for it by Jim Munroe.

As always, I hope to one day flesh this explanation out more, but since this is a work in progress, this will have to do for now. One important note, of which I am (unduly) proud: no permanent modifications have been made to the typewriter. This might be important if, in the future, I use a typewriter that I care about better preserving. Making it type Each key is attached by fishing line to a solenoid, an electromechanical device that pulls down when electric current is passed through it. View from the back So, in summary: computer to Arduino (via USB); Arduino to shift registers; shift registers to MOSFETs; MOSFETs to solenoids; solenoids to keys.

Il suffit du coup de peinture talentueux de street artistes pour en faire des objets ludiques égayant la rue. Après nos top 10 des publicités qui utilisent originalement l’espace urbain (1) et (2), la rue est à nouveau à l’honneur. Elle reste en effet le terrain de jeu de nombreux artistes, et plus particulièrement les bouches d’égout et autres caniveaux.

Heart Chamber Orchestra: Playing Music (Literally) from the Heart. Heart Chamber Orchestra [heartchamberorchestra.org] is an audio-visual performance during which 12 classical trained musicians control a music composition and a graphical visualization through their personal heartbeats.

The musical score is generated in real-time by the heartbeats of the musicians, who read and play this score from a computer screen placed in front of them. As a result, the installation forms a feedback loop in which the music literally "comes from the heart". Technically, each musician is equipped with an ECG (electrocardiogram) sensor. A computer monitors and analyzes the state of the 12 hearts in real-time. The acquired information is then used to compose a musical score with the aid of custom-made computer software. While the musicians are playing, their heartbeats influence and change the composition and vice versa. In addition, abstract computer graphic imagery is generated to establish another sensual and narrative layer. Watch the performance below. Copyleft Attitude.

Index. Strange things/cosas raras. I’m getting ready for a 20 foal workshop/performance at Penn Museum. Monsters: A Workshop and Happening September 16 Sunday, 2:30 pm Workshop; 4:00 pm Performance Philly Fringe Event Take an afternoon out to discover your inner monster at this audacious Philly Fringe event! Participate in the 2:30 pm DIY workshop where audience members collaborate with artist Douglas Repetto in assembling a herd of frolicking “foals” — small walking tables handmade from scrap wood and simple mechanical parts. Then at the 4:00 pm happening, the monstrous herd will be set free in the Penn Museum’s majestic Chinese Rotunda, where an epic struggle between the forces of good and evil may or may not take place. Afterwards they are herded out into the Warden Garden, free to eat the grass and frolic in the fountains.

After the event audience members are invited to adopt a deviant foal. +++++++ Gathering tools and pre-fabbing parts… Home - Archivo de creadores de Madrid. Flong - Interactive Art by Golan Levin and Collaborators. Julian Oliver: Critical Engineering. Don’t forget your research Study the areas you plan to buy in and look at their amenities, transport options and any plans for development that might affect your property in future. Find out how prices have moved (or not moved) in different suburbs and the amount of houses for sale.

Do visit plenty of properties Take the time to visit a wide range of properties and have a wish list of wants versus needs. Extra parking spaces and a home office may be more critical than water views or an extra bathroom. Don’t blow your budget Banks will often lend you more than you can comfortably pay back, so don’t set your sights too high. Do arrange your finances You need to have your deposit ready immediately if you win at auction, so sort out your finances well in advance. Don’t skip due diligence Even if the agent is rushing you for a sale, make sure you do the groundwork. Do keep a clear head If at all possible, don’t become overly emotional – you need to be prepared to walk away from any house. Irmalaviada.blogspot. Home.
