SGMK goes for real !!!

We have been working on a business plan for the SGMK, Schweizerische Gesellschaft für Mechatronische Kunst. For that we went to Hagen, get a forest style ad-hoc wlan running and put together some ideas how to continue with SGMK and how to get funded.
i hope i can soon post the new wikistyle homepage, so the mechatronical art society can finally get connected, share ideas and start rocking!

1. Preis mit "Duell" am 5-10-20.ch festival

Juuuhhhhuuuuuuuuu!

i won the first prize in the category of 10 seconds silent movie at the competition of the 5-10-20.ch festival.

unbelievable. I even got money for it (2500 SFr, all wasted on paying my tax bills), the original file was 14 kb and it took me 1 day to create it. thanks to the organizers! they even managed to talk about 5 minutes about the 10 seconds movie, something like the "dramaturgiescher Bogen" and stuff about visualized violence in modern media.

anyway, lets wait for next year!

a new instrument is born...

just did a new instrument. its a 4093 chip with an oscillator and another one serving as LFO.
all packed together in a tupperware with a little lm386 amp and a speaker.

sonator

and it has a sequencer in and that turns it into a great noisy thingy i have never expected.

in fact i planned to create a sonator to check room Eigen-frequencies, but when i found all these noisy bits and pieces in it i wanted it myself... so felix has to wait.
