DESCRIPTION/ABSTRACT: The Spidersonic Sound System is a blueprint for collaborative electronic music. The 3.0 installation will be held as part of the Initiative for Digital Exploration of Arts and Sciences (IDEAS) in the Performative Computing Lab in Atkinson Hall, the UCSD headquarters of the Qualcomm Institute division of Calit2. The performance will be open to the public and run from 2-6pm on Thursday, May 23. During this time, there will be three tech talks to explain the technology, and the program will provide opportunities for guests to explore instruments and their unique interactive capabilities. While the earlier Spidersonic 2.0 consisted mainly of hardware instruments, exploration with Spidersonic 3.0 will dig deeper into computer-based audio, providing musicians with real-time access to virtual instruments built from software such as Reaktor, Max/MSP, Pd, Ableton Live, Maschine, Vocaloid, Kontakt and other virtual instruments, placed alongside hardware instruments such as the Elektron Analog Four, Arturia Minibrute, Moog MS2000, Nord Lead 3 and a collection of custom modular synthesizers.
