The EEGsynth
On March 6th we held progress meeting of the Brain Control Club at CRI. We were happy to be joined by the GameLab and by three students from the interdisciplinary program on education technology who were interested in finding ways to include neuroscience in their exciting projects. The slides of the presentations can be found […]
This weekend, 1+1=3 had the opportunity to meet in Paris and spend a day updating each other and working out our plans for the future. Much has happened lately, and many exciting things will happen next year. First music release due in spring We have done the first EEG recordings of what will become the […]
It is 35 degrees outside, and probably even more in my little south-facing studio. So it is with a overheated brain that I am reading a recent communication by Bart Lutters and Peter J. Koehler in BRAIN, titled: Brainwaves in concert: the 20th century sonification of the electroencephalogram. Luckily it is short and sweet, and […]
For more about our artistic projects using the EEG-synth you can NOW go to our new website. The EEGsynth.org site will continue to be the place for all news and info about the EEGsynth software and hardware development.
We have just arrived in Los Angeles, USA, kicking off our USA tour where we will work and perform together, connect with other artists and academics, give talks, host a session at a conference and reconnect with old friends. First of all, we couldn’t have been able to get it all together with the people […]
I have been looking into TouchOSC as an example application that can send and receive Open Sound Control (OSC) messages. I have installed it on my iPhone 5 and on my iPad 2. Using the inputosc/outputosc modules I can read/write OSC messages with EEGsynth. The only thing that I have not figured out yet is how to broadcast OSC messages. We are […]
We are very excited to meet other EEG hackers at BrainHack, Paris, February 24-26. Here are the outlines of our 5 minute scientific and artistic pitch: EEGsynth: scientific and development pitch Stephen Whitmarsh & Robert Oostenveld (presenters), Per Huttner & Jean-Louis Huhta We are very happy to be able to present to you the EEGsynth […]
On the evening of October 15, 1+1=3 performed together with Carima Neusser for a small invited audience at Jean-Louis’ studio. Those who have followed the blog will know that for some time we have been developing the possibilities of the EEGsynth to use muscle activity as a control signal for sound synthesis. This was our […]
Deleuze and Guattari use the terms “deterritorialisation” and “reterritorialisation” (we know that the terms are annoying to pronounce) frequently in their book “A Thousand Plateaus.” The two writers use “soft” concepts in the book which allow the ideas to change with time and context. For example, a child might have problems with reading and writing, […]
With: Jean-Louis Huhta, Stephen Whitmarsh and Per Hüttner August 19 Jean-Louis and Stephen arrive at midnight. Nocturnal swim and discussions about the individual work carried out in preparation for the workshop and what is expected of the days to come and how we can best reach these goals. August 20 Breakfast meeting and planning of […]
During our work meeting in Athens, we explored and tested the EEG-synth: EEG recordings controlling analogue synthesizers. What follows is a summary of how we solved the main technical and practical issues we encountered and those that still need to be dealt with. More about the output of the meeting will come in the next […]
Did we mention already that we have been awarded a grant from Innovativ Kultur?
SP Escola de Teotro, Sao Paulo, Brazil Per Hüttner, Stephen Whitmarsh and Jean-Louis Huhta joined forces with Brazilian actress Teresa de Almeida Prado and Portuguese actor Pedro Penim to revisit at Samuel Beckett’s last play “What Where.” The session took place in Sao Paulo in November 2014 and was divided into two sections. The first was devoted to recording […]
