real-time notes, uploaded later (Sophea): invite someone to listen. permission to listen. what to do with sounds around? move them, trans-locate, transform, remix. real-time. mediation does not occur in real time. it occurs in a second time. cancellation. spatial elements. additive easy, subtractive difficult. control of acoustics. presence of observer. hear-er. location, pathway. subtractive relates to filtration of input energy. humans use a variety of devices for sonic filtration. cupped ears, ear plugs. psycho-acoustics. withdrawing information and re-configuring it. based in pure harmonics and resonances. (acoustic properties). absorbtion, reflection, reverberatory. waiting for lunch. existing resonances. hearing works. Bill Fontana — back when he was in Boulder, waiting to set up a project with CU, with live sonic connections from a field at high-altitude to a network space. but he never got funding. live, not-live. what about real-time?
Ken Nordeen comes to mind. as does the stomach’s desire to consume. lunchtime.
the workshop continues.
wishing to implement some kind of content management system. for this site. having an interactive blog instead of this. maybe I switch over to that when year 8 comes to a close. issues: edit-ability, portability, stability of server, interface design, customize-ability.?
