COLORBALL
07/09/06 11:21
I recently stumbled across an old project I had
forgot all about. In 2004 I utilised the changes of
pitch and frequency within the human voice to
create varying colors of field within a projected
sphere of light. This I recall came about through
my interest with the work of Nam June Paik, most
specifically his first interactive TV piece which
enabled a viewer, by talking into a microphone to
manipulate the play of electrostatic images upon
the Television screen.
Such basic interactive works still hold context within my recent practice. In TAO JOYSTICK I use a similar frequency level watcher to exchange the play of sounds into more complex audio and visual composition, attaching to the varied frequencies - position, tempo, and duration of any externally synched video footage.

STILLS CIRCUIT BENDING
08/07/06 11:37

Circuit bending with colleague Matt Kane Green at the Stills Gallery open day in Edinburgh, demonstrating different
hardware hacking techniques and how to interface circuit bent instruments with computers and micro controllers.
Participants are able to have a computer control the sound of their chosen instrument interface and be able to use
their instrument with midi sequencers and games controllers via max/msp to make music. This workshop is easy to
understand, for greater involvement the user does require some computer knowledge. Also explained was how the
same skills could be used to generate and control video pieces, as seen in the works 'TAO JOYSTICK' and 'MARRAKATTAK'.

The system uses a G4 laptop running max/msp, attached to an old Atari2700 games console
via audio output and two seperate monitors for viewing.
I am now just getting busy with the content and should have some interesting
pictures to show you soon.
