inSonic 2020: syntheses | streaming festival


[13.12.2020]


The third Symposium represents those artistic projects which are
directly associated with the ZKM | Hertz-Lab and which
artistically deal with disruptive future technologies such as
Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning.
Stephan Henrich and Hasan Mashni will present their recent
artistic experiments which explore counter-intuitive applications
of robots and the prolific artist duo Quadrature will give
insights into their latest artistic developments in the field of
AI-supported sonification of stellar data. We are happy to
include a presentation of the latest version of »Zirkonium« by
Ludger Brümmer and Dan Wilcox, a software consisting of a set of
free macOS tools which aid in the composition of spatial music.
Finally, the artist and researcher Iannis Zannos will conduct an
interactive real-time sonic walk through Tokyo together with the
virtual participants. All in all, session III describes what the
ZKM | Hertz-Lab currently deals with and is working on.
