OUT OF ORDER PAINTING/VISUAL ART WORKSHOPS interaction/relation between music/sound and painting/visuals.  ALTES FINANZAMT 14th - 15th January









MULTIVERSAL presents OUT OF ORDER as part of Vorspiel 2015 by Transmediale and CTM, from 14th-17th of January at Neu West Berlin, Altes Finanzamt and Ex -Stasi building: workshops, concerts, performances, exhibitions, installations.

Description:

What is the limit and what is the error?
What is the connection between them in our space, relationships, movement and life?
Going over the limit can be a recognition of the error?
The huge technological development that is shaping our society forces us to a constant confrontation with the error: a wrong web page, an annoying sound or an unintelligible image. When we face this situations we start to question the system itself and understand the complexity of the world we live in.
On an acoustic level the noise is more and more present in our everyday life, it is something that is becoming familiar to everyone of us. This is true also for other level of perception, both visually and sensorial.
Our event “Out of Order” wants to focus on a better understanding of the limit that brings us to the understanding the meaning of error and its awareness through music, painting and visually.


There will be 2 workshops on two days, both for beginners and advanced level practitioners.

WORKSHOP 1 :
Oliver Orthuber
The aim of this workshop is to provide tools and techniques that are used to create a connection to the Auditory on a visual level. The Main focus is the practical performance. The participants should find out by themselves what techniques and tools are best for them to connect with the live musicians by experimenting.
The workshop is structured into the following parts:
  1. painting/drawing interaction with live musicians
  • automatic drawing
  • action painting
  • all-over-painting
  • drip painting
  1. generate with painting/drawing noises and interact with live musicians
  • drops on metal plate which is connected to contact mics
  • drawing on a wall which is connected to contact mics

Wednesday, 14th
2 pm - 5 pm
Thursday, 15th
2 pm - 5 pm

WORKSHOP 2 :
Liz Crossley/Marie Donath
Drawing with all of yourself and with others.
Three hours experimenting with drawing as a total experience.
Using brain, ears, eyes, hands, the whole body.
Perception of line and movement. Feeling the line within you. Working „blind“.
Line as movement from within to the outside, leaving a visible spoor if there is a mark-maker* in your hand, or mouth or foot or on your head. „Line dancing.“
In this workshop, having live musicians there leads to focus on the input through the ears and vibrations in the body.
We'll use different instruments and see what variety of expressions the play between you, the musician, the instrument or mark-maker* and the surface create.
*leads, pens, crayons, pastels, brushes, fingers, hands & inks
When we have warmed up we will try out what we have experienced on overhead projectors, individually and then with overlays as a group performance.
+
With a selection of acoustic objects and material for analogue projections
We will try to develop a language between sound and vision.

Through getting to know our individual way to express sound in image and vice versa we can develop a way for communication between us.
Based on action and reaction we can play with the impulses we give each other.
Rules or not - it's up to you/us.
