DNK presents an evening of computer music. Jeff Carey, currently residing in Washington DC returns to DNK to show us another new exciting live multi channel computer piece. Alberto de Campo reworks a Steve Reich classic by turning it on its head and Marije Baalman shows us the engaging and possibly fun side of live coding. This concert takes place at SMART Project Space.

Chop Chop
In the crack of a whip energy transfers down the taper of the handle translating into sound. The initial rush of air created by the motion of the cord through the air is transformed into a sharp crack where the end of the whip exceeds the speed of sound; a small sonic boom. The idea that a sound is transformed by the quality of motion is the starting point for a new performative multichannel work composed by Jeff Carey commissioned by BEK in 2010.

Reversing Pendulum Music
Pendulum Music is the only process piece by Steve Reich: hanging microphones swing above loudspeakers; the resulting feedback changes with the time delays and distances. Reversing Pendulum Music turns the idea around: it uses static microphones, and simulates moving sound sources in a multichannel sound system; overall system properties and simulation glitches will influence the sounding result, and the system allows for interventions, such as disturbing the movements by changing (simulated) gravity.
