For cables.gl, a versatile, highly accessible and free online and offline visual programming tool, I developed Spatial Audio (or 3D Audio) Operators. These are ready-to-use code snippets written in JavaScript that allow users to work with spatial audio in web or offline projects without coding!
To get started, create a cables account and join the Spatial Audio Team linked below to use the operators:

Have a Great Day is a series of conversations between ChatGPT 4 and ChatGPT 4 using the same account on two different devices: Have a great day: Hello was initiated by speaking the singel word »Hello«. The version Have a Great Day: Perseverance was started by the phrase: »Please start talking about something«. And the third recording - Have a Great Day: Conversation with you - was initiated by the given sentence: »Have an ongoing conversation with another AI«.
Have a Great Day: Hello was featured during the panel talk Automatensprache versus menschliche Sprache: Was macht uns aus? by Claudia Hamm and Monika Rink at Leipziger Buchmesse 2024 (Halle 4, Stand C403) and was presented by Prof. Dr. Florian Hollerweger in his talk Code as Music – Music as Code at GfM Symposium 2024.

Together with Max Schweder I deveolped the interactive WebApp with interactive spatial audio for Sprung in die Zeit – an intermedia art experience by artist Elias Wessel, composer Natalia Kiës and their collaborators. They describe it as »the intersection of art, music and technology, embodied in 42 abstract photographs and corresponding sound compositions«. The work traces an interest in complex medial structures to aesthetic concepts developed by Elias Wessel and Natalia Kiës in close collaboration between 2014 and 2022.

For SHAME - European Stories (by Justice Initiative EU and Umsteuern! Robin Sisterhood e.V.) I developed a web application that allows project members to do interactive projection mapping to show portraits of the SHAME exhibition series. This approach to interactive digital art decouples the mapping performance from the developing artist, making it more community-oriented and sustainable by empowering project members and affiliates to perform autonomously. The premiere at the Platz der Kinderrechte and the Brüsseler Platz in Cologne was powered by ALL YOUR BASE.

Elektronische Klangerzeuger sind im Jazz schon lange keine Seltenheit mehr. Doch was erwartet eine*n, wenn das Festivalprogramm eine mit Live-Samples, elektronika oder Synthesizer besetzte Band ankündigt? Dieser Artikel gibt erste Hinweise und lädt dazu ein, selbst weiter zu recherchieren.
