Gelijktijdig met Gaudeamus Festival 2024 vindt de mede door ons georganiseerde conferentie NIME (New Interfaces for Musical Expression) plaats, waarin instrumentenuitvinders en muziektechnologie-ontwikkelaars een week lang presentaties geven. Bij verschillende concerten en keynotes van NIME ben je ook welkom met een passe-partout of dagkaart van Gaudeamus.
In this first of six NIME concerts, we introduce the conference theme: “tactility in a hybrid world”. A concert with tactile interfaces and NIMEs tackling human neurological diversity.
Chi Wang – AEON
An immersive musical experience with touch and motion augmented tambourines. AEON incorporates functionalities such as light, motion, direction, and touch interaction. Through this, a complex network of performative actions can be orchestrated.
Vincenzo Madaghiele and Arife Dila Demir – Pain-creature
An interactive wearable instrument for improvisational movement and sound making. The instrument materializes the distinct qualities of the performer’s chronic Pain through visual-tactile-auditory aspects.
Giacomo Lepri and Nicola Privato – Stacco
A new NIME, embedding magnetic attractors that detect variations in the surrounding magnetic fields. It attracts and repels magnetic spheres displaced by the performer, allowing both fine musical control and the emergence of unpredictable interactions out of its interlaced magnetic forces.
Matthew Rogerson – Dromos/Autos: The Autistic Ontology as Performance
The author is a neurodivergent sound artist and performer. Dromos/Autos is a EEG/neurofeedback performance and informed by their own lived experience as a person diagnosed with an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).
Andi Otto – Fello
A performance by keynote speaker Andi Otto with his self-developed augmented cello bow.
