Yellow Magic Orchestra (YMO) trippin on Computer Games
27 MarYellow Magic Orchestra had a great sense for the psychedelic dimension in the electronic dreams of the late 70’s and early 80’s. And the clip for the track computer games has it all: early computer games, electronically generated images, Kraftwerk and traditional symbols in one mind-blowing trip (to the left).
Beauty in Synthesis: the Art of Laurie Spiegel
20 MarWhen asked why she turned to digital synthesizers and software engineering after working with analog systems for a long time, American composer Laurie Spiegel answered that she was looking for a way to apply memory and logic to the freedom that the analog synthesizers gave her. A piece of paper as a composers tool provides a kind of memory that is missing in the old analog means of electronic music making. On the other hand you have control over the actual sound production when working with analog synthesizers. You can experiment with the results of your decisions in way that was impossible before. Computers and digital synthesizers now offer you the same degree of independence for experimentation while providing facilities for the use of memory and logical manipulation in the process of composition.

Disorder, work in progress…
23 FebDisorder is the collision between Kevin Ramseier, dancer & comedian, and François Moncarey, programmer.
Kevin has been educated in the “Conservatoire of Geneva” and from “Le Studio des bains”, is found of new scenic expressions. François, was educated at “Les Gobelins’, creates video generated by algorithms inspired by the existing movements in nature.
Together, with a transmitter and an infrared camera, they create “Disorder”, a performance mixing contemporary dance and generative video.
Through an audacious choreography, come to assist to the fluctuating mood of an individual with a bipolar behavior, switching from the energy of madness to the most total emptiness…
Here is the beginning of their work in progress, some processing sketches tests, they use memo MSAfluid and toxi library !
