Telcosystems, 12_Series, 2009
On Friday, May 29, 2009 BALTAN Laboratories hosts the third in its series of BATLAN GOES NATLAB presentations at the former Philips NatLab at Strijp S in Eindhoven. Curated and moderated by Telcosystems, the focus of this session will be on different strategies of spatialisation in audiovisual art and how this alters our understanding of technology-driven forms of art.
Norwegian artist HC Gilje explores how audiovisual technology can be used to transform, create, expand, amplify and interpret physical spaces. He will present the research he has been doing over the last three years during his research fellowship at the National Academy of the Arts in Bergen (KHIB). HC Gilje writes regularly on these matters on his blog Conversations with Spaces.
The Italian sound designer Lorenzo Brusci will give a presentation on his work in the field of immersive sound and experience design. He is (co-)founder of the applied acoustics division of B&C Speakers, Architettura Sonora, the environmental design team Giardino Sonoro, and the studio Sound and Experience Design.
And Telcosystems will present their latest work 12_Series, which they developed at BALTAN Laboratories as part of the Poème Numérique investigations.
BALTAN goes NATLAB is a monthly series devoted to presenting and contributing to BALTAN Laboratories’ research programme Poème Numérique. Previous guest speakers have included Tim Edler from realities:united (Germany), artists BULL.MILETIC (Norway), Thom Warmerdam (Philips, NL), Willem van Weelden (NL), and Christien Meindertsma (NL). The fourth BALTAN goes NATLAB session will take place on June 26, 2009 and will focus on the space between artistic and technological research and development.

LORENZO BRUSCI
Lorenzo Brusci has set up a network of professionals converging on the idea of conceiving and re-designing human habitats through site specific acoustics design, environmental interaction design, media design, object design, site specific sound design and composition. The creation of multi-sensory contexts of experience is our main goal. Italian sound and experience designer Lorenzo Brusci is the founder of the concept music group Timet (1993) and of the Environmental Design Team Giardino Sonoro (2004). In September 2007 he founded in Krakow (PL) and Berlin (D) the studio SED, Sound and Experience Design. In January 2009 he founds with Lorenzo Coppini Architettura Sonora/Applied Acoustics, a division of B&C Speakers S.p.a.
TELCOSYSTEMS
Gideon Kiers, David Kiers and Lucas van der Velden are the founding members of Telcosystems. Telcosystems researches the relation between the behavior of programmed numerical logic and the perception of a conversion of this behavior into the physical world, seeking for its own narrative in the world of abstract spatial image and sound. The hallmark of their work is its lucid and restrained aestheticism, which is closely related to the technology they use. They produce films, video clips, live performances, installations, software, soundtracks, and prints. Their work has been shown at film- and new media festivals such as Ars Electronica (Linz), IFFR (Rotterdam), .MOV festival (Tokyo), EMAF (Osnabrück), Sonar (Barcelona), Shortfilm Festival Oberhausen, Airwaves (Reykjavík), Short Film Festival Hamburg, Ctrl-Alt-Del (Maastricht), Abstraction Now (Vienna), De Appel (Amsterdam), The New York Digital Salon, Mu (Eindhoven), Boijmans van Beuningen (Rotterdam) and Künstlerhaus (Vienna).
