Shiny Toys 2013 – Part 2

here’s the next batch of images from Shiny Toys – the Audio-Visual Festival..

Prepared Piano by Hauschka is a must! table tennis balls, toys, duct tape, and lots of little pieces.. and some delay & reverb from eventide stomp boxes added to the piano..
lots of performances with cars and live-manipulation of fluids and lamps and everything..  (Asynthone) and – live added sounds somehow integrated.
and .. pure e-motor sound controlled by a flame clockwork and solar driven little tangram tiles that move by a little motor that is normally used for cell phone vibration and it’s all going to a (audio) mixer.. – 2 people – 2 speakers – so it’s rhythmic etc..
Mr.Bernier had 7 (hope that’s true) glass plated illuminated by LEDs from the bottom composed to flash or light with certain clicks /and „cuts“ .. highly appreciated cool.. could be raster noton-kind of style..
a great experience.. musically possibly even better than the day before..
