About this Event
Rizoom Lab
POM, in collaboration with Rizoom, a country-wide research and development program for early-career makers who center their work on music and experimentation, invite you to an evening of discussions, presentations, performances, science, tech, music and collective sharing. Come listen and give four makers feedback on their newest projects: you will be able to try a newly developed musical instrument that extends the human voice or witness a performance that is a result of a collaboration between a mycelium and a performer - literally, grown in a lab - in the Rizoom Lab event. Come try things out with us!
Cosmic Bride
Cosmic Bride is developing a performance that establishes a exchange between a performers body and living mycelium networks through biosensors and environmental controls. (Mycelium network is the underground, web-like network of fungal threads that forms the “roots” of fungi.) Expect a performance where physiological signals influence the mycelium’s environment, while the organism’s electrical activity is translated into sound, creating a shared biological dialogue. Through contact-based sessions over time, both performer and organism adapt to one another, forming an evolving cross-species improvisational practice.
Myra-Ida van der Veen
"In my practice, I investigate the interactions between the body and its spatial extensions. I explore paths between vocal art, technology, the human senses, and interdisciplinary live performances. My research explores extending the anatomy of a vocal ensemble by finding ways to alter, expand, and visualize the voice. My first experiments during my time with Rizoom are focused on how machine-building and the human voice can collaborate physically. There are these sweet spots between technology and group vocal performances that I am still trying to find. At POM, I will show and talk about the design of an instrument that can tap the lips. We will have a small discussion and feedback session, and I hope to gather more ideas to go further with this research."
Laurence Gaudreau
Androgynous music, a short performance of semi improvised music and performance, creating a space between gender and sonic binaries. + open discussion about Laurence's concept androgynous music.
