Technosphärenklänge #2: Talks & Presentations
With John Chowning, Holly Herndon, gamut inc, Marcus Schmickler and Andrey Smirnov
Ever since Pythagoras’s monochord experiments, mathematics have radically expanded our understanding of and the possibilities for producing and experiencing sound. At the same time music has a particularly intense effect when it exhibits qualities that are mathematically unpredictable. The second edition of Technosphärenklänge takes a look at the electrifying interconnections of music, mathematics and technology.
