27 ABRIL > 19H00 I AUDITÓRIO LAGOA HENRIQUES

Realiza-se no dia 27 de abril, às 19h00, uma conferência de Thomas Gorbach, no âmbito da colaboração do departamento de Arte Multimédia com “Dias da Música Electroacústica”.

A temática da conferência centra-se no projecto Embodied Gestures: Sculpting Sonic Expression into Musical Artifacts.

“The aim of this artistic-research project is the development of a new paradigm of interfaces for musical expression especially designed to emphasize a performer’s gestural embodiment within an instrument. For that, “embodied gestures” explores the possibilities of shaping the physical affordances of designed digital instruments with the intention of inspiring particular forms of gesturality. Specifically, our objective is studying the implications of designing musical interfaces which can afford the same type of gesturality that a particular sound inspires.”
