Video CM#9

On Thursday June 18th, FIBER and Flemish Arts Centre de Brakke Grond hosted the seventh edition of Coded Matter(s), titled High Fidelity. This event examined how artists and scientists hack, modify, and develop image protocols, resolution standards and work with algorithmic image processing.

For this edition we brought together artists, designers, researchers and a wonderful audience to discover art and research applied to the human body; technology used as an extension of the body, embedded in our senses, enhancing our abilities and knowledge and altering the ways in which we perceive the world around us.

SOUND HACKERS APP ‘SCALAR’ V.0.0.1

This application is an interactive sound environment created by Ukrainian sound artist Evgeniy Vashchenko AKA V4W.ENKO. It reacts to your movement using your computer’s webcam. Slow and fast movements trigger different interactions with a surrounding sound and 3D sculpture, through which you slowly float. For more information, check out our App Gallery.

Coded Matter(s) #2: Sound Hackers

Following the success of “Coded Matter(s) #1: Unfolding Space”, FIBER and Flemish Cultural Centre de Brakke Grond presented the second edition of “Coded Matter(s)”, titled ‘Sound Hackers’. During this Sunday afternoon matinee we experienced the rising possibilities and new expressions in sound and music due to emerging technologies and code.

Results of the Open Tools Lab Workshop based on Steph Thirion’s “GameMod”. People with little coding experience where given the code to a break out like game and in 90 minutes where taught the basics of programming and then freely hacked code to make pieces of art using the code.

Coded Matter(s) #1: Unfolding Space

On Tuesday evening September 10, the first edition of Coded Matter(s) took place in de Brakke Grond in Amsterdam. This event, titled ‘Unfolding Space’, focussed on the development of interactive and sensory spaces. Software is now managing parts of our city and even influencing the way we interact socially. New ways of experiencing space are arising with the use of sensors, projections and mobile technology. Artists and designers are responding to this with room-sized installations, interactive dance performances and ‘augmented’ environments. These developments are completely transforming our perceptions of space and media.
