BALTAN GOES NATLAB - AUDIOVISUAL SPACES

On Friday, May 29, 2009 BALTAN Laboratories hosts the third in its  
series of BATLAN GOES NATLAB presentations at the former Philips  
NatLab at Strijp S in Eindhoven. Curated and moderated by  
Telcosystems, the focus of this session will be on different  
strategies of spatialisation in audiovisual art and how this alters  
our understanding of technology-driven forms of art.

Norwegian artist HC Gilje explores how audiovisual technology can be  
used to transform, create, expand, amplify and interpret physical  
spaces. He will present the research he has been doing over the last  
three years during his research fellowship at the National Academy of  
the Arts in Bergen (KHIB). HC Gilje writes regularly on these matters  
on his blog 'Conversations with Spaces'. The Italian sound designer  
Lorenzo Brusci will give a presentation on his work in the field of  
immersive sound and experience design. He is (co-)founder of the  
applied acoustics division of B&C Speakers Architettura Sonora, the  
environmental design team Giardino Sonoro and the studio Sound and  
Experience Design. And Telcosystems will present their latest work  
12_Series, which they developed at BALTAN Laboratories as part of the  
Poème Numérique investigations.

BALTAN goes NATLAB is a monthly series devoted to presenting and  
contributing to BALTAN Laboratories’ research programmePoème  
Numérique. Previous guest speakers have included Tim Edler from  
realities:united (DE), artists BULL.MILETIC (NO), Thom Warmerdam  
(Philips, NL), Willem van Weelden (NL), and designer Christien  
Meindertsma (NL). The fourth BALTAN goes NATLAB session will take  
place on June 26, 2009 and will focus on the space between artistic  
and technological research and development.
