(English below)

Vi inviterer dig til en workshop, hvor vi udforsker drager som musikinstrumenter. Workshoppen er faciliteret af den hollandske kunstner og forsker, Marije Baalman. Hun arbejder inden for interaktiv lydkunst.

I løbet af workshoppen vil vi bygge en simpel drage (Sled kite) med elektronisk ledende materialer, hvormed vi lufttrykket og turbulensen på dragen kan registreres. Vi vil eksperimentere med forskellige måder at bygge sensorer til dragen. Herefter kan de registrerede data sendes til en computer, hvor de visualiseres og sonificeres i realtid.

Deltagerne vil lære om at bygge drager, bygge sensorer af ledende materialer og bruge sensordata til at skabe lyd.

Denne workshop er en del af “Play it on the Sky – Borderless Praxis with Kites”, som er en del af Faculty of Senses’ vedvarende interesse for dragen som en kunstform. Sidste år i september afholdt vi workshoppen “Hvordan kan vi oversætte byens rum til drager?” ved Toshie Takeuchi, Victor Valqui Vidal og Anne Eisensee.

‘Play it on the Sky – Borderless praxis with kites’ er en eksperimental platform til at udforske det at bygge og flyve med drager; dens traditionelle omend generiske multikulturelle aspekter, dens sanselighed, dens potentiale for metaforisk historiefortælling, den rolle som fællesskabsopbygning og som manifestation. Play it on the Sky ønsker at fortsætte med at skabe plads til opbygning, samling og happenings på lang sigt.

Workshoppen er arrangeret af Faculty of Senses, KKT – Kommunal Kunst og Teknik og CPH Music Makers Space.

Marije’s practice:

Marije Baalman is an artist and researcher/developer working in the field of interactive sound art. She worked as a hardware engineer at STEIM between 2011 and 2016. Since 2010 she works as a freelance artist and developer from Amsterdam. Her current research goes into the use of wireless networks for live performance, installations and interactive environments.

In her artistic work she is interested in the realtime components of the work. This is expressed with tools such as physical computing, livecoding, digital and analog sound processing, and improvisation. To realise her works she mostly uses open source technology (software and hardware) and she is an active contributor to the open source community.

Marije is a contributor to “The SuperCollider Book” (MIT Press, 2011), and she is currently writing a book titled: Composing Interactions – An Artist’s Guide to Building Expressive Interactive Systems.

About Faculty of Senses:

Faculty of Senses (FoS) is an artist-run initiative that explores new cross sensory art forms through research, public talks, workshops and performance.

FoS focuses on the senses and the apparatuses both within and external to the body that we use to perceive and engage with the world.

FoS creates public platforms in which artist practitioners and researchers engage with and reflect on these sensory apparatuses within a cultural-historical framework.

FoS aims to create an “open source” inspired model for creating community around these topics.

Workshop — SOUNDING KITE with Marije Baalman

We invite you to a workshop where we explore kites as musical instruments. The workshop is facilitate by the Dutch artist and researcher, Marije Baalman. She works in the field of interactive sound art.

During the workshop we will build a simple kite (sled kite) with electronically conductive materials with which we can sense the air pressure and turbulation on the kite. We will experiment with different ways of building sensors for the kite. Thereafter, the sensed data will be sent to a computer, where it is visualized and sonified in realtime.

Participants will learn about kite building, building sensors from conductive materials, and using sensor data to create sound.

Practical info:
Saturday 19. 03. 2022

Time: 12.30 – 17.30

Korsgade 30, Kbh. N (CPH Music Maker Space)

Language: English

Participation fee: 75 kr. (You can bring the kite back home) Max 10 ppl
Snacks and drinks are included.

Reservation can be made via MobilePay: 50396861(Toshie) or via Biletto.
By cancelation later than 7 days prior to the workshop, money cannot be returned, instead please give the ticket to a friend so the prepared material is not waisted.

This workshop is a part “Play it on the Sky – Borderless Praxis with Kites“ which is Faculty of Senses’s continuous interest on the kite as a form of art. Last year in September, we held the workshop “How can we translate an urban space into kite?” by Toshie Takeuchi, Victor Valqui Vidal and Anne Eisensee.
Play it on the Sky is an experimental platform to explore building and flying kites; its traditional yet generic multicultural aspect, its sensoriality, its potential for metaphorical story-telling, it as community building and it as manifestation. Play it on the Sky wishes to continue making space for building, gathering and happenings over a long term.

This workshop is organized by Faculty of Senses, KKT- Kommunal Kunst og Teknik and CPH Music Makers Space.
