Oddity Instruments & Technology Volume XV

timbap digital DJing - basic interaction.


vinyl+ • Expanded Timecode Vinyl. YouTube Description: "Smartphone apps? Nice! But how about a turntable app? / vinyl+ Expanded Timecode Vinyl / Jonas Bohatsch, 2009/10 / Project description:  vinyl+ is an interactive installation that tries to expand timecode vinyl (usually used for digital djing) with visual and interactive elements. This is accomplished by sending the timecode vinyl's values (rotational speed and needle position) to a processing sketch. / This sketch then generates corresponding visual output on the surface of the vinyl itself. Various scenarios for this kind of setup have been developed. The goal is to merge them into one beautiful strange interactive record. / User Experience: People are allowed to touch the record and play with it (spinning forwards/backwards, stopping, starting, repositioning the needle). When turning the record, objects will immediately start turning with the speed of the record or a force will be applied to objects with physical properties, having them slowly pick up speed. Colors of the record and objects will change depending of the speed the record is played back. Also the position of the needle will have an effect on how many objects are visible and the type of objects visible (eg. objects with physical properties, objects visible only when touching needle, size of objects, cuttable objects). / Now supported by Wien Kultur! / Also thanks to Native Instruments for support! / Yes, we had some problems with the focus when shooting this video..."

microTONE

"Quarter-tones are a type of microtone. [In traditional Western music,] for each octave there is 12 notes.  Quarter-tones [...] breaks it down into 24 notes per octave," says Composer Diesel Bodine.  He also lists other systems of breaking down microtones with "13-25, 30, 31, 36, 43, 48, 60, 72, 96" notes per octave.

Click here to check out Bodine's "Introduction to Quarter-tone Music," which is where I found out the above and about several of the composers below (it's a strange video).

Burmese Percussion Instruments.  YouTube Description: "Mae Sot is a border Thai town close to Burma. In Mae Sot and its environs we find a mixture of people from many different origins. Without any doubt the best to do in town for a traveller is heading towards the market. Visit the day market is a fascinating experience. Not only because the astonish presence of products and exotic food from wherever. Still far more interesting is the people we meet. People coming from a puzzle of different ethnic groups. Burmese, Karen, Hmong, Chinese and Thai are among many others we meet on the busy streets around the market. At Ban Mae Tao, a village 3 km west of Mae Sot, on the right side of the road to the border, lies the Burmese temple Wat Thai Wattanaram (some times called Wat Phattanaram). Monks, novices, "dekwat" leaving in that temple, also lay people going to the monastery for leisure or spiritual purposes are Burmese. On the 2nd floor of the main wiharn are the Burmese musical instruments we see on the video. When I arrived there were a group of lay men chatting and playing the percussion instruments. So I had a great chance to record them while playing music. /-----/"


Exotic Instrument.  YouTube Description: "I am told that this particular instrument was made in Budapest, but the instrument concept originated in India. I had the guy repeat the name many times, but I had to look it up to know what it was called. He calls it a 'cymbalom'. It is apparently similar to a hammered dulcimer, but chorded, and it would take a musician some time to learn to switch. / My co-worker (the first guy to talk) asked him to play something slow. He was playing something more along the lines of the Turkish March meets Flight Of The Bumblebee prior to the recording."
