I liked the performance and particularly enjoyed a minimalistic stepping dance the performers executed towards the end of the show. It felt like a simplified version of cicapo or some other court dance. Perhaps something enjoyed by Carl Linnaeus in the ballrooms of his era. Linnaeus&#8217; work in starting the modern system of naming organisms had inspired the performance and he was heavily present in a s\u00e9ance-like segment before the dance. In a talk before the show Kausalainen pondered if the act of naming a thing could be read as an attempt to show affection towards it. The step-dance also reminded me of compulsory or involuntary movements people perform when idling (while waiting for a bus etc). The dance informed me of a vegetative movement or motion, which is possibly intrinsic to all living things. The practice of the performers felt like an amplification of this auto-movement and when performed collectively by the group, it felt like a method of building solidarity trough the lowest common nominator (which for me is idling).<\/p>\n<p>Etched and build a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.modulargrid.net\/e\/other-unknown-bastl-skis-expander-1u\">Bastl Skis Expander 1u<\/a> and assembled a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lite2sound.com\/\">Lite2Sound PX<\/a> unit by Rare Waves. I want to send audio across space using leds and laser beams. Tested it yesterday sending audio form my Disting Mk4 using a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=G0mG9pLxeBA\">bipolar led thing I build<\/a> and it works well. I&#8217;m looking for a red laser which I can use to draw on material surfaces, so that the Lite2Sound converts the shapes of the surface to sound (much like a vinyl needle). I want to hear textures. I used a fee from a wedding gig (manufactured mineral waters, read poetry and served as a bartender) to acquire a spring tank (Accutronics 9EB2C1B) and <del>I&#8217;m making<\/del> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.modulargrid.net\/e\/other-unknown-spring-reverb-expander-1u\">made a 1u expanded<\/a> for the Spring Reverb mkII.<\/p>\n<p>What does sending audio in a laser beam trough parkling water, spatialized by a spring reverb (which feedback agitates the water) sound like? What will the surface of a slab of wood sound like when played like a vinyl? Do grooves of bark sound what they feel like?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Visited Monstera by Essi Kausalainen at Mad House.
