Workshop: “A New Forge: Materialisms, Sound and Computation” by Emiddio Vasquez

Part I: 10:00-12:00 - Context and MaxMSP Crash course

Part II: 13:30-16:00 - Modalys in MaxMSP

Description:

The workshop will take a close look at physical modelling as a technique to synthesize sound, by using a hybrid of MaxMSP and modal synthesis. To do so we will consider notions of computation, digital sound composition and synthesis, as material processes by engaging critically with the ideological assumptions and constructions on both domains and the implemented technics.

Following the ongoing discussions of (neo-)materialist thinking and drawing inspiration from the story of the “Pythagorean hammers” that was crucial to both Western philosophy and tonality, the workshop will introduce users to core issues at stake when considering digital instrument building, ultimately inviting them to form “a new forge” and leave the workshop with their own individual materially-dependent digital instruments.
