Pixelache welcomes Norwegian sound artistTore Honoré Bøeto Helsinki where he will lead a workshop on the construction of “acoustic laptops”. The workshop will utilise found materials and urban waste in the Pasila area, and participants will create their own micro-sound worlds inside a wooden box/container of their own choosing. In building an acoustic laptop, one can rediscover sonic properties of small, everyday objects, question our digital culture and reclaim the waste objects of urban settings.

The workshop is from 14:00 – 18:00 on Sunday, 15 September and will occur at Dodo’s...

The workshop meant especially for beginners in AV field and others who want to experiment in different medium.

The workshop intends to bring awareness to the interconnections between the different senses, namely between sight and hearing, and how these interconnections can be used creatively for audiovisual composition.

Workshop holder Nuno Correia will provide specially developed software that analyses audio in real-time, and manipulates visuals according to that analysis. The visuals are based on vector graphics (SVG). The software is entitled AVVX and is available at:...

The audiovisual installation ‘Metasphere’ is on display atNode Gallery, located in the Aalto University Arabia campus, fromApril 8 to 19. Opening hours areMon-Thu 8:00-19:00, Fri 8:00-18:00.
