Ircam musical research residency

Marco Donnarumma — Tue, 03 Aug 2010 22:40:51 +0000

via Rhizome

Deadline: September 30, 2010

Via the music research residency program, the Department for the Coordination of Scientific and Musical Research seeks to reinforce the interaction between the scientific and musical community by appealing to the computer music community at large. This program offers scholarships to artists and young professionals wishing to take advantage of a period of residency at IRCAM in order to pursue their music research projects in a stimulating collaborative environment.
Each year – via online submission – a limited number of candidates is selected by a panel of international experts based on the following criteria: project content; scientific and artistic motivation; quality and innovative character of the project; mastery of the technologies needed for the project; demonstrated ability to manage a collaborative research project.

Each selected candidate will benefit from a residency at IRCAM for a specific period, associated with one or more of the institute’s project teams. The candidate will receive a scholarship of 1200 euros. IRCAM does not cover travel and lodging expenses.
During the research residency, candidates will work in the context of the Research and Development department in order to pursue their work. They will collaborate with members of one or more teams thus enabling them to deepen the musical and technological issues explored through experimentation as well as participate in the intellectual life of the institute.

At the end of their stay, the selected candidates will be asked to document and share the results of their work via written publications and public presentations given to the IRCAM community as well as the international computer music community at large.

Live at LeCube Nemo Festival

Marco Donnarumma — Sun, 29 Mar 2009 07:43:44 +0000

11st April 2009
Closing event of Nemo Festival at LeCube, Paris.
I C::ntr::l Nature live audiovisual solo performance for augmented bass guitar by The !S.A.D! aka Marco Donnarumma

Body gestures deconstruct the whole life cycle of the caterpillar, making the microscopic world of the butterfly become an immersive and surreal ambient, sometimes violent and compulsive.

Performance powered by C::NTR::L 1.2 Beta – free, openSource software for live audiovisual performance exploiting physical computing, developed By Marco Donnarumma.

Among the other artists performing at this festival Quayola, Mira Calix, CHDH, AntiVJ+Principles of Geometry, Incite/, Frank Bretschneider, Byetone.

Le Cube has earned a reputation as one of the most innovative places on the cultural scene by performing essential missions such as educating the public, providing access to the new multimedia creation applications and discovering and promoting talented young practitioners of the digital arts. Through its programme inviting us to discover new fields of artistic expression, Le Cube aims to help the public discover a field of contemporary creation that gives priority to openness and dynamism.

The Némo festival is back at the Forum des Images, where it began eleven years ago, and we have a very exciting line-up in store for you! There are now five sections to showcase the best of cutting edge cinematic forms and new media art.

Report Vision’r Festival

Marco Donnarumma — Fri, 02 May 2008 10:40:32 +0000

Great times in Paris for Vision’r Festival Vj – http://www.vision-r.org/.
The festival had different locations around Paris: La Generale Manifacture in Sevres (where i performed I C::ntr::l Nature see pictures below), Le Yono in Paris, and the amazing structure Mains d’Oeuvres in Saint Ouen: a polifunctional 4 floors building, with two big main hall (where the most of the audio/video projects has been shown), a huge community hall (where to eat, drink and chat) , several rooms for workshops and an amazing cinema hall, where i tested one of the best spacial acoustic in Europe (i performed there toghether with G-mO the audio/video project Shut Down G8).

Many artists took part in the festival this year and obviously i hadn’t the time to see every performance. Among all projects i found really interesting and professional Juste Alice 02 (http://www.myspace.com/a_li_ce) a original and deep reinterpretation of the fabulous charachter created by Lewis Carrol, Strap on Dildos (http://vjemtv.net/strap_on_dildos) powerful and ironic performance about feminism and queer culture, Hyperspace (http://hyperespace.yroyto.com) synthethic hyperdigital 3 screens performance.
On Saturday in Salon Pro we (as FLxER Team) had a stand where we presented the upcoming LPM 5th Edition, toghether with Codanova, Vixid, Vjamm and Edirol.

A great aspect of the festival was the presence of international artists such as Elsa Vieira and Brendan Byrne (http://vjtheory.net), Toby Spark (Avit UK) that toghether with us from FLxER Team and Neologos from Vision’r (and of course other people, unfortunately i can’t mention everyone) are trying to create and support a worldwide network focused on vjing and audio/video live performances. We had really constructive conversations, so we had the chance to share. This is the best we could ask.

Thanks to all Vision’r staff (Neologos, 10Tordu and all the others). Here you are some pics from these 4 days festival. You can find all the pictures in my gallery, click here (picture courtesy of Yroyto, LeCollagiste).
