(sorry for x-post)
Dear all,
this weekend, a concert of biophysical and mobile music in New York. Both me and Atau&Adam use Pd. (they use iPhones with custom RjDj patches)
19th May h. 8pm Harvestworks FREE** entry 596 Broadway, #602 | New York, NY 10012 Subway: F/M/D/B Broadway/Lafayette, R Prince, 6 Bleeker

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In a double bill on May 19th, Marco Donnarumma starts with a performance utilizing the award-winning biophysical instrument Xth sense, that he teaches this weekend in a class at Harvestworks. This is followed by Adam Parkinson's and Atau Tanaka's exploitation of a common consumer electronics device, the iPhone.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Marco Donnarumma's Music for Flesh II is a seamless mediation between human biosonic potential and algorithmic composition. By enabling a computer to amplify and augment the muscle sounds of human tissues, the work approaches the biological body as a means for computational artistry.
Adam Parkinson & Atau Tanaka reappropriate the iPhone and its advanced technical capabilities to transform the consumer object into an expressive musical instrument for concert performance. In a duo, with one in each hand, they create a chamber music, 4-hands iPhone.
hope to see some of you there, best wishes,
