RADIO CYBORG TRANSMITTER

Reni Hofmüller, Ilse Weber / esc medien kunst labor (AT)

Based on the sound worlds of the Radio Cyborg Transmitter, a new piece is created through the sound-generating apparatuses (sensors), in the course of which our perception is challenged and sensitised at the same time. The Radio Cyborg Transmitter uses Geiger counters and other sensors to record emission values such as temperature, humidity, radiation (UV radiation, electromagnetic waves) and fine dust. The live measured data is converted into sound, a constantly changing soundscape is created - the performance space becomes audible.

PostSensorium. Hearing Notes

Krista Dintere (LV), Ivo Taurins (LV), Lauris Smits (LV), RIXC (LV), LiepU MPLab (LV)

Our senses have always been “mediated” – the sound can't be heard without the “medium” of water or air. With more recent enhancements of immersive and sensing technologies, our 'sensoriums' have intensified and become more mediated than ever before (Caroline A Jones, 2006). The 'constructivist' potential of the sound has been used to a large extent in music or radio, whereas 'experiential' capabilities such as sensual and immersive properties of the sound have been mainly explored by art practices that emerge outside of purely musical environments.
