Messages sorted by: [ date ] [ thread ] [ subject ] [ author ] Hello, Sorry for not being able to skype lately. Could someone write a short, simple summary about the actions done simultaneously? I won't be able to see or hear you due to the slow internets and this would help. There was something about luck in group changes and then there was something about sunset? I'll be able to stream a little bit about the sunset, it is setting behind the trees around the time of the my stream. I can of course try to climb on the roof of the house (a bit scared about that). What is the idea with the sunset? Is it about just showing a sunset what ever way we feel like or is there some sort of concept like everyone is trying to show it from same angles or something? mkk --- [aether] skype summary main poimts christiaan cruz fe2cruz at hotmail.com Wed May 20 11:48:08 CEST 2009 Previous message: [aether] correct spelling, names etc? Next message: [aether] skype summary main poimts Messages sorted by: [ date ] [ thread ] [ subject ] [ author ] Mari & all the Aethers, To make it easier I think rather than luck they mean: Chance Props of luck gambling or chance ect: Dice drawing lots - sticks throwing bones games of chance play gaming imagery Aethers Aleatoric synchronization will also happen by chance hopefully we can work with you via skype otherwise we can also text your phone messages SMS we can instruct you to add colors or adjust your stream simple instructions like its too busy or a cooler or warmer color likewise if skype is too much for your connection you may SMS me too 213-806-6962 free via http://www.gizmosms.com/ we'll have 1 person in each group function like a moderator and try to keep all of the cells even and balanced sunset/sunrise is just another way to accent our locations if the trees are in your way don't climb your roof its not important as not many of us won't have a sunrise or sunset just have a local paper, a clock or snow anything live from your location that the rest of us won't have It seems like a proper rehearsal may be difficult to organize. too many timezones. However since this is a festival about imporvisation and our main theme could be Moving Images of Chance then rehearsals may actually be the wrong thing to do. I suggest all streamers just gather as many objects that they can. Objects that might support or even oppose the idea of Chance. Lots of Colors, pictures, books. Be prepared to write or Draw. Have prisms, Kaliedescopes or lenses to put over your camera. Try puppets in lights or just as shadows. Use mirrors to open up your space. Be aware of the other features available in the patch: cam-links & effects have your camera near a nice window to grab imagery outside or even stream outside in a nice location as long as the light isn't an issue Everyone has at least 2 hours. So we should all bring lots of things to play with in front of the camera and be ready to change those things if your moderator feels your cell needs to be adjusted. Anywone with luck enough to have connections for proper viewing and listening of all the streams should try to communicate to everyone how all 9 cells are working and if any adjustments need to be made. --- [aether] personnal summary chloé cramer chloecramer at gmail.com Wed May 20 13:42:48 CEST 2009 Previous message: [aether] Split Interaction with Cym Next message: [aether] paper aethernauts + final roll call Messages sorted by: [ date ] [ thread ] [ subject ] [ author ] *Those are my notes about the content of saturday's jam *: playing cards about luck : being lucky (can lead to any personal interpretation) clocks (time zone, time on location) following the music : improvising on the music. abstract lines ... *Judy wrote :* ** Nature Weightless Wet Anxious Travel Hot Languid Food Soft Money Couples/Pairs Dance Industrial Ancient Magic Cool Depth Focal Shift NECESSITY TO PREPARE DIFFERENT KIND OF PROPS, ACCORDING TO THE SUBJECT. I would like to add that the mutual watching of other frames should not be forgotten, so that we really play together (if there is no master of ceremony). Maybe some frames could also be passive or still, or showing a slow minimalistic action, in order to llow other frames to catch the viewers attention. Let's consider each other as an orchestra and trully imagine what it sounds like when all musicians are playing solo in the same time... by the way, is there a leader of the performance or not ?!

Two screens (one for skype chat and patch the other for MAIN AETHER WINDOW) 2. Two projectors. 3. Sound transmission (i would like to know MANU, if that sound patch i'm using could have a doble transmission to another channel where quality could be maximum as Chris proposed?) http://giss.tv:8000/aether.mp3 4. Video channels transmission: http://1904.cc/ http://www.livestream.com/transsesiones http://www.ustream.tv/channel/transsesiones RECORDING. Who will record the hole performance? We should maybe asign different people for different moments.. it will be long! Who will record sound? who will record video? I will try to do it here, but ... cool if someonelse do it. one at cd quality and the other really low IDEAS for JAM we talked in last chats At 2:00 pm (COL time) we will try to start at time with this jam CYM gives the signal, in a moment of *highter intensity* will start. Just need to be sure everyone is clear and knows they must write "greetings to split" when Cym gives that command around 20minutes into our performance and then 'greetings to split', in different languages. (Like, projection in Croatia. Videovortex Festival. Cym, hello from Vorva Linda, California, Here is the sun in Australia, C'est le printemps à Brusels,... 1.Playing cards, dice, coins, casino... about luck : being lucky --> astrology, karma clocks. could be a nice "leitmotiv", a clock , like an old alarm. to use it in BREAKS. We say the comand: CLOCKS and everyone put clocks in their frames. 2. Drawings, abstract lines, B&W 3. Ambience, landscapes, and using remote webcams. 4. Simulating people making, "Foley sound" . Crunching, steps, claps, hammers, using in the image objects that makes think about sound! 5. Simulating playing instruments, following music. 6.Adapting to less frames. 7.Words to play with: Luck Nature Weightless Wet Anxious Travel Hot Languid Food Soft Money Couples/Pairs Dance Industrial Ancient Magic Cool Depth Focal Shift 8. spaceships, tesla, transmision, theremyn... representation of magnetic fields.. 9. Toys, objects, playhouse 10. try to play simon says. 11. use red, green, bleu patch colors, and contrast B&W images... some times of course colored and what ever you want of course.... THINK about a moment of a little perfomance for 30 minutes, to make muscicians do the soundtrack live.... (aether9 making images and muscicians following) the interface with 9 frames dissolve interface sometimes some of the frames black abstract lines the teams themselves can decide how to lay things out hell they can move around in just one cell if they want too IDEAS IN THE AIR of posible STRUCTUREs FOR THE JAM For the JAM I have being talking to musicians to see if they have an structure to follow. Because i think it is very nice to have knoledge of that to prepare something for aether9. 1. One of the musicians will base his part of the JAM direction working with SILENCE in music. 2. Another one will work with a synth and use, from the computer, algoritms like dinamic systems . That will not be repetitive sound secuences. Some could take a long time, others not. random typical aether atmospheres 1. Writing in skype session , needs of noises, voices, music, strings, punctual "bruitage". 2. Using colors as we have being doing, in frames we want to have particulary "musicalised".Like in SIMON SAYS toy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2jmVU2eykuI ambience sound effects foley sound ---
