now if he only used it to make "music" that would be great. i actually really like those sounds too....squelchy.

part 2 is fuckin hilarious

and noise art is not music because? you can't dance to it? hum it? sing it? and the sound you make is music and his isn't because? completely subjective

There's a few performances go on like this in leicester (mostly related to the music tech at the uni)...been to a couple, full of max/msp geeks stroking their chins

...some call it 'noise art' and improvisation...it can be interesting to hear live manipulation with both hardware and software...on the other hand it can be utter shit...but there are some things that do cross over into genius.

I like.

Like Aphex Twin in a jacuzzi with a dot matrix printer and a temperamental steam driven typewriter in reverse phase to the beating heart of God.

Depends how you define music.
My definition of music doesnt cover that shite. If you are going to call it anything call it performance art.

That performance is music with out craftmanship and i have never been moved by music that had not been molded into what it was. Every band or producer that i have loved crafted their tunes. That guy just shat those sounds out and expected people to lap it up and appluad him fuck that and fuck him.

If that was was a recording from 1920 i would be impressed. If it was one of the first attempts at electronic music i would be impressed. But its not its just some guy fuckin around.

I have more respect for people on this forum banging out their first tunes on a cracked copy of fl then i do for this guy

Each to their own I guess........but if that's the future of live performance, I want a delorean.

I want to see the re edit where Hans Tammen gives us a play by play commentary on what he was thinking before he touched each knob. cool shirt tho.

Some awsome noises there, that videos just motivated me to buy a furby to attack with a soldering iron next week.

i dont think its that much future anymore, the blippo box was designed by Rob Hordijk, i dont know when but Rob has been around for some time and is quite a legend among synthesizing fans, and i think the blippo was one of his early inventions.

here's his page, some intressting reading

the future of live performance, its digital,
and you might se it here soon, so stay tuned

sometimes walls of shifting sounds at various volumes, wave form types and colours can be pleasing...despite the source of the sound or how much thought went into it. People take a different view of Murcof ( http://www.myspace.com/murcof ) and Alva noto ( http://www.myspace.com/alvanoto ) but say it is completely acceptable because their work has been recorded and released and therfore thought through instead of shat out...but having seen Murcof play live i could say the approach is no different and any less commendable... what they have is a music that isn't dictated by a scene, or compromised by structure...but many artists like these are using completely algorithmic set-ups and only adjust a few parametres live. blah blah...perhaps i've overstated this...just food for thought.

As for digital live performance, this is what our dubstep shows are about (live electronics) and alot of time we're shitting out rythmns on the the spot...one of the promoters for our last gig had a 'go' on our set up mid-set...no thought whatsoever. but people kept raving.

got well excited by the title of this thread , yeah some cool sounds but i agree, he should make some decent music out of it.

You'd need a flux capacitor in the future just to run NI stuff.

oh my days...

we're so lucky to have wide minds like yours around. and i love your use of the term 'noise art' you must be so authentic. and also i love that whole subjective/objective debate, totally senseless, lol. did it ever occur to you that your divide between objective and subjective might itself be what you describe as subjective? just playin.

you should read some Quine, or better yet some Wittgenstein and maybe you'd be able to stop using Immanuel Kant as a butt plug...

happy days though, peace. okplzthxbye.

This is quite tame to some of the stuff ive heard. I like it.

[xirrus]

Music exists as an art because people can relate to it because of sound. Various sounds whether it be noise, synthesis, Time signatured material catches one ear and is a sense of pleasure. Some people like it because of its psychological effects and/or experimentalism . There are various other reasons and feeling behind it that I can't describe.

You may not like it nor understand it... thats ok... There's a shit load of people that don't like dubstep nor can they understand it. Hard to get your head around that?.. Think about it... There are no boundaries on what may catch one's attention.
