Drosophila Karaoke Bar [2018]

Ursula Damm

The installation invites visitors to establish a direct exchange with fruit flies through a technical interface. A software is transforming human speech into signal that can be perceived by flies. It allows auditory feedback between people and animals. For blending human and fly songs we will use a special signal processing vocoder provided by Berd Edler of the Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Circuits.

Performing Polyphony

Frederic Blais-Belanger

Performing Polyphony explores collaboration between species: While the dancer performs, her movements generate air streams into the water, triggering the glow of the algae. Their emission of light is then perceived by a photosensor and translated as sounds that will feed the performer's motion, thus creating a complete loop between the two organisms.
