Ok, are you ready to return in 1860?

here is the first sound ever recorded in our civilisation, made by Édouard-Léon Scott de Martinville, in 1860, before Edison’s wax cylinder experiments. The vibrations of a woman singing “au clair de la lune”was recorded on a piece of paper by the french man and was translated in sound by an American team in 2008.

You can find this sound at the “expérience Pommery # 6″ exhibiton in Reims (France) by the (incredible) french artist Bertrand Lavier.

Ghost’s voice, drives me crazy!

Common Space Incidents is the official debut-album of singer and instrumentalist Angela Aux. Songtitles and lyrics are based on several interesting things all around space and time, men and machines and the question, whether angst of error is error itself.

This week is the release week of my last record, “eargear” on the Spanish portuguese label 30porumalinha, with my friends scott, Paul Frick and Frivolous. 4 tracks of sexy, sensitive, and deep dance music.

And I really love the artwork made by a talented spanish illustrator living in Berlin, Danae Diaz, who has a personal and original sense of surrealism.

In Bb 2.0 is a collaborative music and spoken word project conceived by Darren Solomon from Science for Girls, and developed with contributions from users. The videos can be played simultaneously, the soundtracks will work together.

The Bacteria Magnet from Nurse With Wound. “I thought the films of Jiri Barta would make an excellent illustration for this incredible track.” videomashup by opalsongs.

Music and animation by Dustball. “The figures are rotoscoped. I filmed myself doing the action then outlined every frame by hand. The sounds were created using everyday objects.”

Cylinder by Andy Huntington and Drew Allan is an elegant series of data sculpture based on sound analysis. A mapping of the frequency and time domains produces cylindrical forms representing the spatial characteristics of the sound input. Physical versions of the digital 3D models are then 3D printed using stereolithography.

The idea of mapping sound to space is not unfamiliar. The Cylinder project shows similar strategies to those used in the exhibition Frozen, which showed sound represented as a continous space rather than as a one-dimensional signal. However, Cylinder is from 2003, predating Frozen and making it somewhat of an early example of the data sculpture genre.

The hungu is an African musical instrument, ancestor of the Brazilian berimbau. Its origins are carried on in an ancient tradition. Inspired by the grace and raw beauty of African rock paintings, Nicolas Brault combines 2D animation on a graphics tablet with the warmth of sand animation, thus uniting modernity and tradition, Brazil and Africa, music and memory.

In Radiohead’s video for House of Cards, no cameras or lights were used. Instead, 3D plotting technologies collected information about the shapes and relative distances of objects. The video was created entirely with visualizations of that data. Directed by James Frost.
You can play with their data visualization through a 3D viewer on code.google, and download the data to create something new. To see and share results check out the house of cards group on youtube. 60 versions were already made!

The Making-of House of Cards video

A short film by Flat-e. The project began life as a film to accompany a performance by the London Sinfonietta of Edgard Vareses Ionisation. An inspiring 20th century composer who pioneered works that cross over into the electronic scene of today.

The piece shows what you can achieve when people collaborate in an unventilated environment where superglue fumes outweigh the oxygen 6:1.

music by the new talented uk artist Ultre

Today in CrashRoots.com i publish these videos and thought it would be good to share it with yours.

Enjoy it !!!
  

The track is composed of a sine wave bass, custom drum sequences, and sounds recorded from the Disney film ‘Mary Poppins’. By Pogotracks.

I ve been following this talented artist since year 2000, James Paterson, based in Montreal, he surprised me 10 years ago while he started to post his fantastic low quality flash animations.

his first website, presstube.com shows his past 10 years work, from little test sketches to sculpture, animation, painting, movies.

He’s also running the great animation website insertsilence.com

this video is an excerpt from ‘I Am A Chain Reaction’ which is one of seven works that make up the dance/animation/programming hybrid project, Smashup, collaboration with Amit Pitaru ( Insertsilence ), and dancer/choreographer Dana Gingras ( Animals of Distinction, The Holy Body Tattoo ). Smashup premiered in its complete form, an hour long performance, at the Festival Transamérique in Montreal in the summer of 2008.

The software component of I Am A Chain Reaction is projected from above and running live during the performance. This is a raw video recording from above and involves no compositing.

Let me introduce one of my favourite contempory artist, Christian Marclay :

Marclay’s work explores connections between sound, photography, video, and film. A pioneer of using gramaphone records and turntables as musical instruments to create sound collage, Marclay is, in the words of critic Thom Jurek, perhaps the “unwitting inventor of turntablism.”^[1] His own use of turntables and records, beginning in the mid-1970s, was developed independently of but roughly parallel to hip hop’s use of the instrument.  - wikipedia

Here a little overview documentary, Marclay discusses his interest in unwanted sound, his use of turntables, early examples of his art and more recent pieces too.

If you have a chance to catch a Marclay’s exhibition,… go !
