+Earth Coding workshop with Martin Howse and Nik Gaffney. 23-25 February. Sonic Acts. Amsterdam.
+Through a range of guided, experimental activities, the two day Earth Coding workshop actively explores links between contemporary technology and the Earth, attempting to define a new form of communicative post-land art and examining questions such as:
+How can the Earth as a process be prompted to assume a technological form, and thus compose and run software?
+What signals can be transduced from the Earth, occupying the body within a potential electromagnetic, geologic or atmospheric feedback loop?
+The Earth Coding Workshop, combining field trip, speculative construction and intensive discussion embraces the whole Earth process in an attempt to approach these and other projected questions.
+Acivities will potentially include:
+- GPS geomantics
+- Telluric transductions and translations
+- Construction of atmospheric (balloon) feedback loops
+- Worm coding and poetry
+http://www.sonicacts.com/2015/masterclasses/workshop-by-martin-howse--nik-gaffney-earth-coding
+This workshop is aimed at artists and cultural practitioners. Please send a biography and a short motivation outlining why you would like to participate in a specific masterclass/workshop to: masterclass[@]sonicacts[.]com. Deadline for application is Friday 13 February 2015.
