Orchestrated by Kamau Patton in collaboration with Machine Project members
Three nights
Tues Nov 10th, Wed Nov 11th, Thurs Nov 12th, 2009
7-10pm
FREE; limited space!
Through a series of experiments in primitive forms of transmitting coded information we will explore the perceptual conditions –noise and static- that accompany systems designed for human interaction. In the workshop we will build simple telegraph machines. Our focus will be on transmitting information using sound and rhythm (Morse code) as well as creating devices for transmitting codes using light. The workshop activities are experiments in progress developed by the artist, sourced from teaching texts in the artist’s collection. The goal of the workshop is to identify themes and structures that can be mapped onto the Machine Project space. The group project will be to install the devices made during the workshop and create a coding system to link the upstairs gallery with the basement classroom space.
This is a project that's suitable for all ages and skill levels, with no special requirements other than an interest in human communication.
