This course is open to EMS users and aims to showcase some different Serge patches and control them with SuperCollider in a couple of different ways.

Aubes is a new audiovisual project by Alexis Langevin-Tétrault and Guillaume Côté. The performance seeks to transcend the tools of the genre, in order to sculpt the audiovisual material and to create a personal, sensitive, nuanced and non-stereotypical perspective, in the modern aesthetic continuity of artists who have engraved directly on analog film, such as than Stan Brakhage and Norman McLaren. The use of ''stop motion'' techniques, as well as visual effects suggesting processing on film (engraving, chemical reaction, burning) under the Touch Designer software makes it possible to deploy an original and inspiring abstract audiovisual vocabulary, which highlights in relief the artistic intention of the duo; the evocation of dawn.

The audio of the performance is performed on modular synthesizers and computers, and it presents a complex interrelation with the parameters of visual generation. The composition consists of exuberant, dynamic and varied sound synthesis, and it is constructed using tonal, harmonic and rhythmic elements. The result is colorful, rich and dense audiovisual content, in perpetual evolution and renewal, avoiding stagnant drones and abrasive noise. The purpose of the residency at EMS is to complete the audio of the performance; it will benefit greatly from the use of Buchla and Serge synthesizers.

Gabriel Kleber is an electronic musician and sound artist based in Switzerland and Barcelona. In both his installations and experimental instruments, he aims to build systems that promote playfulness and lucky discoveries by encouraging visitors and performers to choose their own approach to interaction.

Aside from his solo compositions, he has collaborated with others on projects ranging from contemporary dance to theatre and experimental cinema.

He has a background in psychology and art history and has studied electronic music in Germany, Switzerland and Spain.

His most recent project, Lightingale, is an instrument that translates light and gestures into music. During his stay at EMS he will work with the Halldorophone and his own Cristal Baschet as part of a wider research series on experimental musical instruments.

I juni 2022 hade EMS nöjet att ta emot en instrumentdeposition, en prototyp av en ny halldorofon. Instrumentdesignern Halldór Úlfarsson arbetade på en tidig prototyp under sitt residens på EMS redan 2013. Under ett års tid kommer det unika prototypinstrumentet att finnas tillgängligt för EMS studioanvändare och besökande gästtonsättare. Halldór vill också göra det möjligt för musiker och tonsättare med lämplig bakgrund, men som inte är EMS-användare, att ansöka om ett kortare residens för att utforska instrumentet i EMS studios. Så om du är intresserad av att lära känna halldorofonen är du välkommen att ansöka här (scrolla ner). Urvalet sker löpande.
