Invitation: HELVEDESMASKINEN kører igen (22.+23. august)/ The Infernal Machine a collective sound installation up and running








For english version scroll down

Den store kollektive højttalerinstallation HELVEDESMASKINEN som Sune TB
Nielsen og Tobias Kirstein har bygget, kører fra fredag d. 22/8 kl 18.00
til søndag d. 24/8 kl 06.00!

HELVEDESMASKINEN består af mere end 40 kasserede højttalere og
forstærkere som vi enten har fundet i storskald eller fået forærende.
Hver har deres personlige vinkel på lydgengivelse. Alt sluttes til en
eller flere mixere, og ind i mixeren sender vi så mange lyde på én gang
som muligt. Alle bidragydere inviteres også til at komme og live-mixe.

Send os et lydbidrag på CDR (audio eller data) eller upload den. Alle
bidrag skal ligge inden for ét af frekvensområderne HØJ, MELLEM eller
LAV. Alle bidrag afspilles i MONO, så vi anbefaler at audiocd-er har det
samme i både
højre og venstre.

Når vi sætter MASKINEN igang er alle der har sendt os et lydbidrag
automatisk en del af installationen og er velkommne til at komme forbi
og mixe outputtet som de lyster. Alle tidligere bidrag indgår naturligt
i helvedesmaskinens brændstof og alle der har indleveret benzin på bålet
i forne tider er derfor velkomne.

Vi sigter på at så mange bidrag som muligt, afspilles samtidig.
Vi håber at få et sted mellem 20 og 30 kanaler kørende.

HVIS DU HAR LYST TIL AT SENDE ET (NYT) BIDRAG (ELLER KENDER NOGEN DER
HAR LYST TIL AT VÆRE MED) TIL HELVEDESMASKINEN SÅ SVAR PÅ DENNE MAIL SÅ
HURTIGT SOM MULIGT (Senest lørdag d 17/7 !!!!).

NB: Der bliver en Helvedesmaskine warm-up fredag d. 25/7, hvor der er
åbnings-galla på Under Vand hvor det hele foregår. Hvis du er
interesseret i at deltage
da, må du også gerne melde det ud.

*THE INFERNAL MACHINE*
/HELVEDESMASKINEN

August 22. 23. at Under Vand (http://www.undervand.org/)

/A collective lo-fi multispeaker sound-installation /

/run and edited by Tobias Kirstein and Sune T. B. Nielsen/

THE CONCEPT
THE INFERNAL MACHINE is placed in a yet unseen field between different
performance strategies: DJ-live mix, sound installation and multispeaker
concert.
THE INFERNAL MACHINE is a collective installation in two senses of the
word: Firstly we collect old loudspeakers and amplifiers that people
were going to dump anyway. Secondly a wide range of different sound
artists/musicians/composers, both Danish and international, are invited
to contribute with sounds and the contributors are invited to do a live
mix on the installation, while machine is running.
Most machines are built out of various mechanical parts, where most
parts are made in different places and by different people. Sonically
THE INFERNAL MACHINE is built from sounds (each of them replaceable at
any time) that are made by different people. Each time THE INFERNAL
MACHINE is run, a number of CD’s/or computer players are played at the
same time and played on repeat. This way there is no
definite ending and especially no definite sound.

THE SETUP
The setup consists of a large (and growing) number of thrown-away
consumer loudspeakers and amplifiers - all of them found in the garbage
or given to us.
Each old amplifier is connected to as many speakers as possible. Each
amplifier/speaker-setup functions as one self-powered loudspeaker – most
of them sounding quite characteristic.
This time we hope to build a multispeaker setup with 20-30 channels (all
mono).

Please send us sounds on CDR (audio or data) or upload, and you will be
part of the big collective soundinstallation – The Infernal Machine.

Please note that there will be a warm-up friday 25/7 at the opening of
the exhibition at Under Vand, where it's all happening. If you want to
participate there, please tell us quickly.

IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN PARTICIPAINTING, BY SENDING SOUND OR/AND
MIXING, PLEASE RESPOND TO THIS EMAIL AS SOON AS POSSIBLE FOR DETAILS.

Best regards
The enginemen
Kirstein & Nielsen
