These possibilities of dealing with reality and of shaping the experience of old and new phenomenons in an artistic way are of a major importance to my own works. And also for the cooperation with our partners in San Diego, the thoughts of McLuhan are not unimportant, because the process of a mediatization of cognition is ever since not only a process of removal from physicalness. It is – due to the exceedings of physicalness and its implications – much more the transgression of the mechanistic system in general. Thus, the project-title "LoFi Sounds in HiFi Spaces" already implies two cores of our research and our projects. To say it with McLuhan, beyond a mechanistic point of view, we are approaching a comprehension of virtual systems, such as one is sound or the bridged-space we create. | These possibilities of dealing with reality and of shaping the experience of old and new phenomenons in an artistic way are of a major importance to my own works.

Considering our common meetings which are mediated via skype or the small experiments like the interchanged audio-visual relations in our recent works, i think that the interesting implications in dealing with these specifics of recent media innovations are already beginning to be recognizable at this stage of our project, and of course, they will be marked clearly, they will be the message, no matter if they are LoFi or HiFi or raspberryPi. | Considering our common meetings which are mediated via skype or the small experiments like the interchanged audio-visual relations in our recent works, i think that the interesting implications in dealing with these specifics of recent media innovations are already beginning to be recognizable at this stage of our project, and of course, they will be marked clearly, they will be the message, no matter if they are LoFi or HiFi or raspberryPi. | ||
* American sound artist Bill Fontana made several pieces in which he transfers sound from one location to another. How does this locational switch change our understanding of a the space(s) in question? What new aspects of a sonic environment might emerge? What happens to our perception of a location once it is stripped from its original sounds and these are replaced by sounds from another location? | * American sound artist Bill Fontana made several pieces in which he transfers sound from one location to another.
