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.
