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.
