Create your own music from (deep)space - Workshop by Valery Vermeulen

Working with solar data from NASA's GOES and turn this into sound and music using the open source platform Pure Data.

La Bourse Namur

<h1>Create your own music from (deep)space</h1><h1></h1>Did you ever wonder how the universe would sound like if you could hear it and if it is possible to make music with it and if so how this can be practically done? In this workshop you will learn allabout it and much more.Central theme of the workshop is how abstract scientific data such as for example data originating from (deep)space (emitted by various astrophysical objects such as nebula, pulsars, stars,... ) can be used in an innovative way to compose, perform music or create multimedia installations. To this end the focus will be put onto the two creative practices that make this possible: data sonification and interactive sound synthesis. With data sonification we hereby understand the rapidly expandingfield of transforming any given numerical abstract data into sound. Interactive sound synthesis on the other hand encompasses all synthesis techniques where the generated sound is being influenced by one or more external data sources.For the workshop at KIKK we'll be working with solar data from NASA's GOES (Geostationary Operational Environmental Sattelite ; https://www.nasa.gov/content/goes, https://www.swpc.noaa.gov/observations) and turn this into sound and music using the open source platform Pure Data.Experience LevelThe workshop is open to everyone. Open to novices, curious minds, musicians, sound sculpters, artists, scientists,… No experience or technical pre knowledge required. All the concepts and methods in this workshop will be explained in a hands on and practical way.Requirements • Laptop and headphone• <a href="https://puredata.info/downloads/pd-extended" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Pd extended</a> English
