Artistic research from sound and musical practice

Workshop proposal: Artistic research from sound and musical practice by Enrique Tomás and members of the 'Ensemble Container'. Curator, Alberto Bernal

Artistic research -artistic research- is one of the most active fields of current thought and creation. The investigation arises through a question about the world that surrounds us. The search for answers can motivate research processes in varied areas of knowledge. For example in philosophy, poetry, biology, art, physics or music. Research in general, regardless of motivation and methods, is part of that search for knowledge. The only

Attention: From Condition to Currency. Post-Screen Objects

This is a workshop for artists, designers, and filmmakers interested in the present and future of attention. Attention itself—and distraction in its many variations—seems to have evolved from a condition into a currency. 

What new tactics and strategies can be worked on to handle storytelling’s dependencies on undivided attention across media, objects, and situations? What new kinds of narrative objects will come into being in a post-screen interpretation of artists’ and alternative cinema? This workshop will be about improvised answers to such questions. No answer is final and every step

Automáticas'18: Recycling ideas, traditions and tools for a sandbox on experimental music.

It has been 10 years since the first AVLab 1.0 prototyping workshop at Medialab Prado and many things have happened in the field of audiovisual creation with technology. There are new tools and new interests, as well as a variety of media from which sound and audiovisual artists can express themselves and develop their creative work. Some examples of this are net art, artificial intelligence, virtual reality, robotics, cryptocurrencies, social networks or streaming platforms that have modified not only the way we communicate, but also the way of perceiving our environment, having fun or to

Facts are not natural occurrences; they are carefully assembled. For a long time, this assembly was anchored in the visible—a photograph, a physical map, or a witness account. Today, however, these forms of evidence exist alongside a new, digital architecture of truth. Deep within this black box, states and corporations manufacture the facts that sustain their imaginaries.

AVLab Meeting February 2018. VANG#5. DISOBEDIENCES IN SOUND

Panel and Performance

Disobediences in sound is a musical exploration of the convergence between sound, noise and resistance. Noise as a sound image that denies a pre-established (musical? social?) order, thus exposing other (utopic?) places for an aesthetic experience. Disobedience as a radical position, as dissidence, as the maximum consequence of a (sound?) resistance, and also as a search in the aesthetic field of that utopia that is denied to us from the social sphere.

Initiated by Duo Hellqvist / Amaral (violin and piano) with the composer and sound artist Alberto Bernal, the project

AVLab Meeting, March 2018. IN-SONORA 10: Sonic and interactive art festival, 10th edition.

This AVLab meeting will begin with the presentation of the work of the resident Gabi Schaffner, whose residence within IN-SONORA 10 seeks to put a different perspective on the role that nature and a lifestyle closer to nature play in the cities through gardens and urban gardens. Her work as a sound artist uses the radio as a creative vehicle to communicate this look to nature.

Her work will be developed in collaboration with local artists and those people interested in the subject who have shown interest to work with through an open call to participate in her work during her residency.
