“The Berlin Music Week is a new platform for everything to do with music which celebrates its premiere between the 6 and 12 September 2010. Professionals and music fans will come together at festivals, club events, showcases, market places, workshops, sessions and many more events. ”
“Computer-generated imagery (CGI) is so advanced today that it can bedifficult to distinguish from reality. But the creation of the sounds that accompany the images are still largely the work of skilled “Foley artists ” working with physical props.”
“Soon, though, computers may be able to generate eerily accurate sounds for film soundtracks too. For the first time, a team of computer scientists has reproduced the sound of flowing and dripping by modelling the way water creates sound in the real world .”
Steve Goodman - Sonic Warfare: Sound, Affect, and the Ecology of Fear.
“Steve Goodman aka Kode9 is a London-based electronic music artist, DJ, and owner of the Hyperdub record label.”
“Sound can be deployed to produce discomfort, express a threat, or create an ambiance of fear or dread—to produce a bad vibe. Sonic weapons of this sort include the “psychoacoustic correction” aimed at Panama strongman Manuel Noriega by the U.S. Army and at the Branch Davidians in Waco by the FBI, sonic booms (or “sound bombs”) over the Gaza Strip, and high-frequency rat repellents used against teenagers in malls.”
Steve Goodman will be giving a lecture on June 5th 2010 in Berlin based HAU
I haven’t read the book and there is only 1 review on amazon.com, which is rather negative (2/5). Will be checking out the lecture tomorrow, if there are still some tickets available.
The judges of the prestigious Nodus Awards have evaluated our website and came to folloing conclusion:
“Your site has demonstrated outstanding quality in all areas of web design and has few equals.”
Accompanying our move to Berlin we have launched a new version of our website.
We have made a lot of changes to the backend, which might not be visible to you right away, but hopefully will increase the user-experience.
Among many changes, we have also integrated Berlin based soundcloud services/API for optional background music.
