Where & When: 020090623, Tuesday, 19:00 to 23:00 at Space Gallery in downtown - 1141 Polk Street, San Francisco, CA 94109
How: A great line-up of musical performances with associated presentations, demonstrations and discussions.
Moldover - guitarist versus controllerist, traditional instrument techniques on Instruments from the future
Nonagon - on performing live with MIDI controllers
Preshish Moments - building custom MIDI controllers out of wood, nails and Max patches
Timeline85 Productions - presenting ColorSynth Hallucination Technology - MIDI driven LED Lighting effects
Vlad Spears - I’ll be expanding on my presentation at the last Overlap.org event: speaking about controllers in general, the need for and superiority of modern controllers for making modern music and playing an in-progress Wolf Interval track or two with Live, the Snyderphonics Manta and my Max/MSP/Jitter tonal mapping app, Honeycomb.
If you’re interested in creating live electronic music with technology, this promises to be both an entertaining and informative event.
Music + technology + freaks = fantastic.
Update: LearnTech was a blast. Large, enthusiastic crowds of everyone across the spectrum, from lovers of electronic music as an experience to those with deep experience in its creation.
Above I’m playing a new Wolf Interval track, Tir Na Nog, using the Manta. Honeycomb is in action on the projection.
