Action, eventyr, komedie, krimi, drama, gys, musical, science fiction, western og kostumefilm… Varmt velkommen til det sidste event i SOUND & TELEVISION som byder på en forunderlig aften i selskab med the queen of “avant-retard”!!!!

null

Forårets performancerække afsluttes tirsdag d. 15. juni med Danmarks premiere på den legendariske People Like Us aka Vicki Bennett’s nye, live A/V set “Genre Collage”. Hvor filmstjerner, karakterer, plot og motiver skifter plads og roller i et underholdende remix fra populærfilmenes verden.

I de sidste 20 år har britiske People Like Us udviklet en helt særlig “avant-retard” æstetik, hvor hun på humoristisk og virtuos vis leger med samplinger og dekonstruktion af populærkulturelt medieindhold. I hendes plunderfoniske film- og lyd-collager genbruges og rekontekstualiseres found footage lyd- og billede-materiale med lige dele humor og sort syn på populær kulturen.

People Like Us har optrådt og udstillet på bla. Tate Modern, The National Film Theatre, Purcell Room, The ICA, Sydney Opera House, Pompidou Centre, Sonar i Barcelona og The Walker Art Center i Minneapolis. People Like Us har også deltaget i radio sessions for BBC’s John Peel, Mixing It, og CBC, KPFA og hun har sit eget radio-show “DO or DIY” på WFMU. People Like Us arbejder i følge et ’share-alike’ diktum og de fleste af hendes værker er derfor gratis tilgængelige via nettet.

Hvis du er i København er du meget velkommen til at overvære performancen live i Åbent Studio. Sted: Bispebjerg Kulturhus Nordvest. Dørene åbnes Kl. 20:30. Deltagelse er gratis; men reservation er nødvendigt (da antallet af pladser er begrænset) – send en mail til info@tv-tv.dk.

Den danske lydkunstner Jacob Kierkegaard udforsker lydresonanser i arkitektoniske miljøer og i hans live, audio-visuelle TV-performance “Loop Tower” afdækkes skjulte lydbilleder fra Berlins roterende tv-tårn.

Loop Tower

Om SOUND & TELEVISION:
SOUND & TELEVISION hedder performancerækken, som i krydsfeltet mellem VJ’ing, lyd- og videokunst, har inviteret danske og udenlandske kunstnere til at undersøge TV-mediets materialitet og udvikle en halv-times live TV performance, hvor selve transmissionen er kunstværket. SOUND & TELEVISION er ikke live PÅ TV, men live SOM TV.

Tuesday 1 June 21:30: “sCrAmBlEd?HaCkZ!” by Sven König

Posted: under Nyheder.
Tags: , , , , , ,

SOUND & TELEVISION præsenterer “sCrAmBlEd?HaCkZ!” en live audio-visuel performance af den tyske mediekunstner Sven König.

SCrAmBlEd?HaCkZ!

I sin performance dekonstruerer Sven König på underholdende vis musik-video genren med sit software sCrAmBlEd?HaCkZ! – hvor brud på copyright-loven bliver kunst.

Gramophone records, magnetic tapes, vinyl records, digital samplers and computers have already liberated the samples long ago. But still – to infringe copyrights – one has to decide which sample one actually wants to steal. One has to arduously load audio files into sample editors or sequencers. One has to cut, copy, paste and arrange. All that takes precious creative energy and a lot of time.

Enough of that!

Copyright infringements have never been easier than with sCrAmBlEd?HaCkZ!

Tuesday 25 May 21:30: “The Angel of History is Watching Television” by Rosa Menkman

Posted: under Nyheder.

SOUND & TELEVISION presents Rosa Menkman’s audiovisual performance “The Angel of History is Watching Television”

The angel would like to stay, awaken the dead, and make whole what has been smashed. But a storm is blowing from Paradise; it has got caught in his wings with such violence that the angel can no longer close them. The storm irresistibly propels him into the future to which his back is turned, while the pile of debris before him grows skyward. This storm is what we call progress.” Walter Benjamin

Every technology has its own accidents. Rosa Menkman is a Dutch visualist who focuses on visual artifacts created by accidents in digital media. The visuals she makes are the result of glitches, compressions, feedback and other forms of noise. Although many people perceive these accidents as negative experiences, Rosa emphasizes their positive consequences. By combining both her practical as well as an academic background, she merges her abstract pieces within a grand theory artifacts (a glitch studies), in which she strives for new forms of conceptual synthesis (synesthesia) of the two.

Tirsdag 4 Maj 21:30: Wider Circle feat. Lamburg Tony

Posted: under Nyheder.
Tags: , , , , , , , ,

Click here for info in English

‘Wider Circles’ – en live performance for landsdækkende digital television tirsdag d. 4. maj, 2010, kl. 21.30-22.00.

Wider Circles er en high-low-tech audiovisuel TV-performance der involverer seererne i udviklingen af et utopisk, analog pause-billede og pause-signal for digitalt tv.

‘Wider Circles’- pausesignalet og -billedet baseres ikke på den perfekte modtagning af lyd og billeder, men på idéen om at fjernsynets fremtid vil være defineret af dets brugere. En ny pause-skærm vil således skabes gennem seer-feedback: i løbet af en halvtimes direkte tv-udsendelse, kan lydbidder sendes ind via MMS, der bliver direkte mixet ind i et live moduleret lyd- og billede- signal.

DU KAN SENDE DIN EGEN LYDBID VIA MOBIL / MMS NÅR SOM HELST FØR OG UNDER DEN DIREKTE TV-UDSENDELSE den 4. MAJ MELLEM KL. 21:30 og 22:00.

SEND TIL TLF 28 64 70 06. Det koster kun din sædvanlige MMS-takst.
Alternativt kan du kan sende lydbidder til info@tv-tv.dk – Dette virker kun FØR tirsdag d. 4. maj.

Se også her hvordan du kan lave dine egne lyde: Download instruktion

SE OG DELTAG i performancen via din regionale digital-tv kanal: København: Kanal Hovedstaden | Fyn: TV Fyn | Midtvest: TV Midtvest | Bornholm: Kanal Bornholm | Nord: Kanal Nord | Syd: Kanal Syd | Øst: Kanal Øst | Østjylland: Kanal Østjylland. Se på udsendelsen på dit kabel-Tv eller via din antenne. Se din regionale dækning med antenne her: DÆKNING

DU ER OGSÅ VELKOMMEN TIL AT DELTAGE I STUDIET UNDER DEN DIREKTE UDSENDELSE! Se adressen nederst på denne side.

HVORDAN SER EN PAUSE-SKÆRM FOR DIGITAL TELEVISION UD?
Wider Circles inviterer seerne til at definere rammerne for en ny form for pause-skærm.

Oprindeligt holdt man papirkort med prøvebilleder op foran kameraet for at kalibrere billedet. I det analoge television fungerede pause-skærmen også som et hjælpemiddel for seeren til at indstille billedet korrekt. Men med de nye kanaler som transmitterer 24-timer i døgnet og i det digitale televisions automatiserede processer har prøvebilledet udspillet sin rolle. Eller?

“Wider Circles” er en high-low-tech audiovisuel TV-performance der involverer seeren i udviklingen af en utopisk, analog ‘en-til-en’-pause-skærm for digitalt tv. Pauseskærmen baseres ikke på den perfekte modtagning af lyd og billeder men på idéen om at fjernsynets fremtid vil være defineret af dets brugere. En ny pause-skærm vil således skabes gennem seer-feedback: i løbet af en halvtimes direkte tv-udsendelse, kan lydbidder sendes ind via MMS, der bliver direkte mixet ind i et live moduleret lyd- og billede- signal.

Det overordnede mål med Wider Circles er at skabe måder og situationer der kan demokratisere produktion og udvikling i og af TV-mediet. Fremtidens teknologi, og ikke alene medie-teknologien, bliver i stigende grad defineret og udviklet af brugere, borgere og arbejdere gennem en demokratisering af udvikling og forandring.
VÆR MED! Send dine lydbidder som MMS på hvilket som helst tidspunkt før eller under selve udsendelsen til tlf: 28 64 70 06.

‘Wider Circles’ feat. Lamburg Tony – et program af Aharon Amir og Kent Hansen på vegne af demokratisk Innovation Wider Circles er del af projektet Sound & Television og har modtaget støtte fra Statens Kunstråds Billedkunstudvalg.

DELTAG I STUDIET! Sted: Kulturhuset Bispebjerg Nordvest, København (bag shell-tanken på Tomsgårdsvej). Adgang fra Rentemestervej. SE KORT / STED

Tuesday 27 April 21:30: “4NX” af Aymeric Mansoux

Posted: under Nyheder.
Tags: , , , , , ,

SOUND & TELEVISION presents French artist Aymeric Mansoux’s performance “4NX”.

null

The bootstrapping of a stochastic noise generator, the search for structure and frozen moments of accidental beauty – 4NX is an audiovisual sculpture on white TV noise, starting with the panic of a flat signal, turning it into image then back into sound. A cornucopia of clicks, pops and glitches. 4NX is violent, but draws you into this world of chaos through its black and white aesthetics, melancholic atmosphere and unexpected shaping of raw noise into hypnotic patterns. 4NX is on ongoing research on noise aesthetics.

Aymeric Mansoux (FR) is an artist and member of the GOTO10 collective. Aymeric’s main artistic and research interests revolve around online communities, software as a medium and the influence of FLOSS in the development and understanding of digital art. From August 2007 until January 2008 he was co-editor (with Marloes de Valk) of the Digital Artists’ Handbook and in 2008 released the GOTO10 publication FLOSS+Art.

The Renault Wizard-1 A film by Johan Holtzberg

The Renault Wizard explores an off the map society in the dark forests of Småland, Sweden. A society in which business historically been central and still is the ideal, but has become increasingly difficult to get to profitability. In the midst of this, the pensioner Sven-Eric, an old Renault expert finds his way working 7 days a week schedule, dealing with shady house-owners, greedy people in general and a squarethinking commune who is taking pride in making his life as hard as possible. Faced with authorities accusing him of poisoning the province with carwrecks, chasing him for nickels and dimes, he stands up with full energy and humour for his workpassion for Renault cars, and also functions as a hub for all the oddbirds of this forgotten district, helping them out, often with a minimum of compensation. This is a land where you are as far from where the struggle for power takes place, a land where depopulation has been a fact for the last thirty years, this is where a Renault Wizard can be the heavyweight champion of the world.

The film will be aired Febr 16 on Kanal Hovestaden/Kanal Kobenhavn – see our About text for other regions.

Recipe for a Meeting

This Thursday, December 17th at 9:30 we would like to invite you to watch Recipe for a Meeting, a TV-TV program produced by YNKB in collaboration with Kajsa Dahlberg and Ilya Lipkin. The program will air on Kanal Hovedstaden. There will also be a dinner and a second screening of the program at 18:00 Friday, December 18th at YNKB.

Recipe for a Meeting (25 min )

Conceived as a response to the COP15 summit in København, we see this program as the record of an experiment in collective subjectivity. Working with footage of the city, a demonstration, bodies in space, cooking and a shadow play, we attempt to think through an alternate vision of the images surrounding this event. Together, we intervene into the climate of spectacle that the summit has produced in order to ask the question of what a different conception of politics and subjectivity could look like.
YNKB is located at Baldersgade 70 st tv, 2200 København N
All are welcome.
