Two occasions of evolving participation between Tatiana Kocmur and Borut Savski – 2021 and 2022.

The two artists continue to explore the temporal and spatial boundaries between physical presence and the digital images. Experimentation within the physical and virtual led the artist to think about dissociation / dislocation – meaning the principle of moving away from the body / physicality. This phenomenon occurs when communicating at a distance, where physical bodies (or several of th... more

This is some help on the level of electronics and arduino programming to bring NAME:’s idea of “policijska ura” (-> curfew) to materialization.

LED lights
Name: had a large number of LED lights taken from a Lidl’s dump. Each of these led strips originally used a separate constant current driver (42V / 300mA), which was useless for this project. In the end we used a simple current limiting resistor per led strip -> 39ohms / 0.5W and one PSU block with 43Vdc (t... more

Pri projektu Marka Košnika Apres Midi (Po midiju; produkcija Institut Egon March) sta nastopala dva moja objekta iz serije Plesalci – to sta Posodi polni zvoka. Za ta namen sta dobili mikroprocesorsko srce in možnost daljinske kontrole. V strukturi predstave sta morali imeti predvidljivo obnašanje. Torej malo ali nič avtonomije. V svoji zasnovi sta imeli avtonomijo kot najpomembnejšo lastnost. Kot robota pa jima je marsikaj manjkalo.

Termenvox ali theremin ali etervox imenujejo tudi prvi elektronski glasbeni instrument (leta 1920). Njegov izumitelj je Lev Sergejevič Termen. Seveda je neposredna posledica izuma ojačevalnega elementa (Lee de Forest, 1906-10), vendar je že tudi zlo/dobro/raba tehnologije za estetsko rabo. V zadnjem desetletju doživlja najbrž že svoj četrti ali peti ciklus ponovnega življenja, ti ciklusi pa dokaj zvesto sledijo t... more

Sometimes there is a need to make a concert, calling up friends, and performing live as an impro band. While each time there is clearly a need for a rehearsal, I find it most problematic. This is not music – it is communication. About music we know enough already…
