[spectre] Mycelial Radio Activation open call: Mycelium Network Society workshop Linz

2018-08-29 Diskussionsfäden m
Mycelial Radio Activation 

Open Call Mycelium Network Society Workshop

Martin Howse 

Saturday September 8th, 2018, 11:00 - 17:00
at Stadtwerkstatt,  Linz, Austria
http://stwst48x4.stwst.at 

_"...all my mycelial networks in the galaxy are in hyperlight
communication across space and time." - Terence McKenna, The Mushroom
speaks_
-
During a one-day workshop at stwst48x4, we will collectively develop
play and performance rituals for the audible, electromagnetic,
networked, touch, vocal, electronic activition of the local
human/Mycelial network installation of the Mycelium Network Society [1].


Within this open workshop we will build DIY radio receivers and
sculptural antennae, testing the reception of signals and interfacing
with open examples of the Lingzhi growing mushrooms. Participants will
learn about inter-species communication between humans and mycelium -
through sound, radio, touch, smell and ingestion. Participants will work
with growing Lingzhi mushrooms and local/radio enabled sensors for
various physical properties such as moisture and temperature. Mushrooms
will also be tasted (in tea) and heated (to release smoke). 

The workshop is a collaboration between electronic sensibilities and the
extra human realms of radio frequency and Lingzhi. 

Some experience of working with DIY technologies and/or other lifeforms,
radio or electronics is welcome, but not essential. 

Please register with an email expressing some interests to Martin Howse:
m...@1010.co.uk by September 4, 2018. 

The MNS RADIO WORKSHOP is part of Mycelium Network Society [1]
presentation.

[spectre] New podcast: PROBES #24, curated by Chris Cutler

2018-08-29 Diskussionsfäden Radio Web MACBA
New podcast:
Chris
Cutler
 follows
composers as they raid the toy-box – and the bierkeller – in search of new
non-electronic sonorities to drive both the driest contemporary
compositions and the wettest pop singles.



*Curated by Chris Cutler*
Link: https://rwm.macba.cat/en/curatorial/probes-24-1-chris-cutler/capsula


In the late nineteenth century two facts conspired to change the face of
music: the collapse of common practice tonality (which overturned the
certainties underpinning the world of art music), and the invention of a
revolutionary new form of memory, sound recording (which redefined and
greatly empowered the world of popular music). A tidal wave of probes and
experiments into new musical resources and new organisational practices
ploughed through both disciplines, bringing parts of each onto shared
terrain before rolling on to underpin a new aesthetics able to follow sound
and its manipulations beyond the narrow confines of ‘music’. This series
tries analytically to trace and explain these developments, and to show
how, and why, both musical and post-musical genres take the forms they do. In
PROBES #24,
toys,
music boxes and balloons find new roles in contemporary compositions, pop
performances, film scores and jazz improvisation, as composers explore
alternative acoustic sources for extended, non-electronic, sounds.
