Us & them & them: Robots, Artists and Scientists

by ANAT Communications

MEDIA RELEASE Apologies for cross postings **Us & them & them: Robots, Artists and Scientists** The Australian Network for Art & Technology (ANAT) is pleased to announce the next discussion on the Synapse elist which, throughout 2008, is investigating the leading-edge of art and science research collaboration. The April discussion will concern robotics and artists' engagement with the field. As well as surveying contemporary projects, the conversation will focus on the ramifications of artists working alongside scientists on robotics, now and into the future. Discussion Guests; KIRSTY BOYLE is an artist whose passion for robots has led her to travel the world, working with like-minded puppeteers, animators and roboticists. Her work examines robots as subjects of culture with particular emphasis on how we experience and personalise our interactions with them. She is currently artist in residence and guest researcher at the AI Lab, University of Zurich, where she is working on girlton, a robot combining artificial intelligence with traditional automata. www.anat.org.au/blog/boyle/ PAUL BROWN is an artist and writer who has specialised in art, science and technology since the late 1960s. His work has shown at the TATE, Victoria & Albert and ICA in the UK; ARCO in Spain and the Venice Biennale as well as being represented in public, corporate and private collections internationally. He is currently a visiting professor at the Centre for Computational Neuroscience and Robotics, University of Sussex, where he is working on a project to evolve robots that can draw. www.paul-brown.com SHUHEI MIYASHITA is a scientist who grew up in Tokyo and Tsukuba Science City, Japan. He holds a Bachelor degree in Electrical and Electronic Engineering and a Masters in Computational Intelligence and Systems Science. He is currently a Ph.D candidate at the Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, University of Zurich, where he is working on self-assembly robots in order to explore the extent to which artifacts can be used to represent life-like behaviours. http://shuhei.net/ LEONEL MOURA is an artist who works with robotics and artificial intelligence in order to produce "Artificial Creativity". He created his first swarm of autonomous painting robots - able to produce original artworks based on emergent behaviour - in 2003. Since then he has produced increasingly autonomous and sophisticated 'artbots', including RAP (Robotic Action Painter, 2006) created for permanent exhibition at the American Museum of Natural History in New York. www.leonelmoura.com/ DOUGLAS REPETTO is an artist and teacher. His work, including sculpture, installation, performance, recordings, and software is presented internationally. He is the founder of a number of art/community-oriented groups including dorkbot: people doing strange things with electricity, ArtBots: The Robot Talent Show, organism: making art with living systems, and the music-dsp mailing list and website. He is currently Director of Research at the Columbia University Computer Music Center, NYC. http://artbots.org/ MARI VELONAKI is a media artist who engages spectators with digital and robotic 'characters' in interplays stimulated by sensory-triggered interfaces (speech 1995, touch 1997, breath 1998, electrostatic charge 2000, vision system 2000, light 2003, robotics 2003). With Dr David Rye, she co-founded the Centre for Social Robotics at the Australian Centre for Field Robotics, University of Sydney and is currently an Australia Council Visual Arts Fellow. www.synapse.net.au/people/mari_velonaki To subscribe to the elist visit: www.synapse.net.au and select 'Discussion List' ___________________________________________________ ANAT is assisted by the Australian Government through the Australia Council for the Arts http://www.ozco.gov.au its arts funding and advisory body, by the South Australian Government through Arts SA http://www.arts.sa.gov.au and the Visual Arts and Craft Strategy, an initiative of the Australian, State and Territory Governments.

midi triggering visuals with surround sound

by Dell McLeod

Hey there, i'm currently working on a theatre project where I need to trigger certain short film clips at random times. We want the films and the atmos sound in between the films to be able to be midi triggered with the keyboard, ie to play the 'chase' sequence, hit key 'a' and the chase sequence is cued to be played. I'm working with Final Cut Pro to edit these sequences, and the audio guy is working with Logic. We want to work in surround sound, which is why I'd like to trigger it with Final Cut, however from my understanding you can't midi trigger different parts of a sequence with different keys on the keyboard. (let me know if you can, that'd be great!!) Does anyone know of a software where you can midi trigger the film and the sound with different keys? (rather than goto next marker, goto next marker ... and so on until you get to the bit you want to cue.) I usually cue my visuals in modul8, however this doesn't work with sound) The film is going out through s-video to a dlp projector, and the sound is going through a firewire410 soundcard. Any help is more than welcome. Cheers. Dell. -- Dell McLeod Founder/Director delicat productions 5 View St, RD 2 Waitati. +64 (0)3 482 2652 +64 (0)27 668 0089

inexpensive 3D printers?

by Brit Bunkley

Hi all, I'm wondering if anyone on this list knows anything about the inexpensive rapid prototype/CNC machines in kit form on the net http://www.evilmadscientist.com/article.php/3printerpreview ; http://candyfab.org/ ; http://www.cadcamcadcam.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD <http://www.cadcamcadcam.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=126> &ProdID=126 ; http://www.fabathome.org/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page ? Julian Priest told me about the http://reprap.org/bin/view/Main/WebHome repap which can supposedly rebuild most of itself...or soon will. We were think about building one of these machines; or perhaps building one could be an elective at our school... One reprap person I emailed said that the "RepRap machine is still very much a research project. We're working on full self replication, but until we achieve that it will be difficult to provide kits. I still encourage you to participate in the project though." It looks like from their forums that there are still formidable bugs to work out. The sugar machine is still in progress and will have new version in "few months" according to an "evilmadscientist" from candyfab.org, but its resolution seems low at best. The http://store02.prostores.com/servlet/kobask8/Categories?category=Fab%40Home; http://www.fabathome.org/wiki/index.php?title=Fab%40Home:Getting_Started looks the most promising, but I have not heard of anyone who has used it. Does anyone know more about these or other inexpensive 3D printers?

Why not try using Logic to trigger clips in Modul8 (assuming it takes midi input)? I've got a set up with Ableton Live sending trigger cues to Resolume... I'm sure you could set something similar up with the software you're familiar with. Message: 3 Date: Fri, 28 Mar 2008 13:34:59 +1300 From: "Dell McLeod" <delicat.mail(a)gmail.com> Subject: [Ada_list] midi triggering visuals with surround sound To: ada_list(a)list.waikato.ac.nz Message-ID: <c4aeb63e0803271734j7e2a8ecaq1184b5996cadaa32(a)mail.gmail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Hey there, i'm currently working on a theatre project where I need to trigger certain short film clips at random times. We want the films and the atmos sound in between the films to be able to be midi triggered with the keyboard, ie to play the 'chase' sequence, hit key 'a' and the chase sequence is cued to be played. I'm working with Final Cut Pro to edit these sequences, and the audio guy is working with Logic. We want to work in surround sound, which is why I'd like to trigger it with Final Cut, however from my understanding you can't midi trigger different parts of a sequence with different keys on the keyboard. (let me know if you can, that'd be great!!) Does anyone know of a software where you can midi trigger the film and the sound with different keys? (rather than goto next marker, goto next marker ... and so on until you get to the bit you want to cue.) I usually cue my visuals in modul8, however this doesn't work with sound) The film is going out through s-video to a dlp projector, and the sound is going through a firewire410 soundcard. Any help is more than welcome. Cheers.
