XPUB 1 «↔» SPECIAL ISSUE X «↔» LFP



1.Session with Dennis de Bel


Meergranen1
Meergranen module - all required parts
Meergranen2
Meergranen module - all parts
soldered together
Meergranen3
Meergranen module with custom
lasercut frontpanel



  • Intro into modular synthesis: (exists in both, analogue and digital form)
    Several modules, that are not hardwired totgether.
    Each module does (not allways) one task only - but does that very good.
    In-, outputs allow to interface several modules.
  • Soldering / testing of the "Meergranen" module.
  • Flashing different presets with onto the Arduino
  • Designing and lasercutting the first custom frontpanel



Custom sample selection (to be continued):




2.Session with Olli Aarni at De Player


WorkshopOlli1
Dennis playing around with
a modular synthesizer setup
WorkshopOlli2
Modular synthesizer setup
Kantele
Begena



  • Listening sessions with the purpose of learning how to talk about sound
  • Hunting interesting sounds and writing a description of them
  • Inventing a new word to describe the sound: "knüsprichtlic" (engl.: "crunchdenseyficial")
  • learning musical vocabulary (pitch, frequency, timbre, overtone, metrics,...)
  • Exercise: sorting given abstract soundfiles into categories and naming them


WorkshopOlli4
Pile of objects that we brought
to the workshop to make music with
WorkshopOlli5
My improvised "instrument" and
notation for a performance
WorkshopOlli7
Recording of performances




  • Everybody brings in 3-4 random objects that one can make sound with
  • Choose objects and experiment with making:
    • ..the most quite sound possible
    • ..the longest sound possible
    • ..shortest sound possible
    • ..a sound that involves a change in pitch
    • ..a sound that involves a change in timbre
  • Choose objects and create sounds that match the categories created yesterday
  • Create a composition / performance and write down notation
  • Perform while being recorded
  • Jam in groups while being recorded
  • Talking about language (Phoneme, toneme, chroneme -> see interesting links)
  • Speech to song instrument: recording speech - looping a part of it and listening to the melody
  • Add recording from earlier and make a quick song
  • Course feedback
