Royal Conservatoire of Antwerp, (BE)

ARTICULATE 2019 @ Royal Conservatoire Antwerp

The annual festival for research and art ARTICULATE is back from 21 to 25 October, starring Fluxus as the trending topic for 5 days of exhibitions, performances, concerts, artist talks, etc. The programme is born from the current research in the arts that is conducted at the Academy and the Conservatoire and is a festive opportunity for researchers to show their projects to colleagues, students and the general public. You can join a a free master class by Els Dietvorst and Dirk Braekman on ‘Time is a book (is Time)’. The HPSCHD happening merges 5 hours of John Cage on 7 harpsichords with live drawing, and for the premiere of VENSTERS we treat you to 3 analog projections at the same time. ARTICULATE is an invitation to participate in the multiplicity of forms, situations and outcomes that our artistic researchers create in their process.

New Electronic Music for Strings

The concert explores the possibilities of the combination of string instruments and digital elaboration of sounds; from simple amplification, that allows otherwise imperceptible sounds to surface, to extensive interaction of the electronic medium, that create a dialogue with the solo instrument, altering the very timbral perception of the acoustic sounds.

The collaboration between violin/viola d’amore performer Marco Fusi and composer/sound engineer Louis Goldford delivers a kaleidoscopic exploration of the interplay between strings and microphones.

Orpheus Institute, Ghent (BE)

Orpheus Doctoral Conference – MUSIC, HUMANS AND MACHINES

link > call for proposals

This conference explores musician’s long relationship with their instruments and instrumentalities, questioning issues of autonomy and agency in the apparent dichotomy between tools and musical expression. From the mechane of Greek theatres from which gods were suspended, to Mozart’s description of the Stein fortepiano’s knee-lever as “Die Maschine”, to the epoch-defining technologies of recording, sound synthesis, and algorithmic composition of more recent times, performers and composers have relied on mechanical means to create magic in their art.

The Orpheus Institute docARTES programme invites artists, composers, performers and all artistic researchers to participate in its 2019 doctoral conference, where we will engage in reflections on the tangible interdependences between music-makers and their tools. We invite participants from a wide range of disciplines – those that concern new and old instruments, as well as those in the field of musical automaton and their expressive use – in order to bring together multiple perspectives, and cover an extended range of artistic experiences: from historically informed performance to contemporary and electroacoustic music creation.

The one-day conference opens with a concert, which welcomes both artistic presentations and scholarly papers, giving special attention to practice-based research.
