Sound art lab – Klub Mama / Multimedijalni Institut

[English below]

Sound art lab je redovni program razmjene znanja koji za cilj ima okupljanje zajednice umjetnika/ica i entuzijasta/ica zainteresiranih za umjetnost zvuka, zvučne tehnologije, hackersku kulturu i open source filozofiju. Program je zamišljen kao serija kontinuiranih druženja (dva puta mjesečno) u formi otvorenog laba. Facilitator druženja je Tin Dožić, a program koordinira Marija Krstanović.

Ovaj lab ostvaruje se kroz format kontinuiranih radnih sesija otvorenog tipa kako bi se omogućila trajna razmjena znanja i vještina u kontekstu ‘uradi-sam’ praksi te rad na kolektivnom razvoju koncepata zvučnih umjetnosti. Cilj je poticanje slobodne eksperimentacije i istraživanja zvučne tehnologije. Open lab je otvoren za širu javnost i unutar njega svi zainteresirani sami mogu donositi prijedloge za rad na određenim temama, konceptima i tehnologijama te uz pomoć facilitatora raditi na razvoju tih projekata. Također, očito je da početnici/ice u ‘uradi-sam’ praksama nemaju pristup svoj potrebnoj tehničkoj infrastrukturi za bavljenje tim praksama, stoga u sklopu Sound art laba će pristup takvim tehnologijama i alatima biti omogućen zajednici.

Ovim programom MaMa nastavlja s aktivnostima razmjene znanja i vještina u kontekstu otvorenih tehnologija te pružanja podrške zajednici zainteresiranih za multimediju i suvremenu umjetnost. Uz navedeno, u sklopu otvorenog laba povremeno će se održavati i dodatni programi kao što su predavanja gostujućih predavača/ica i projekcije filmova s naglaskom na temama suvremene eksperimentalne glazbe, elektroakustike i zvučnih tehnologija.

Ako želite postati dio ove entuzijastične i samoorganizirane ekipice slobodno se javite Tinu na: soundartlabmama@gmail.com

Po potrebi program se može održavati na engleskom jeziku

[English version]

Sound Art Lab is a regular knowledge-exchange program aimed at bringing together a community of artists and enthusiasts interested in sound art, sound technologies, hacker culture, and open-source philosophy. The program is conceived as a series of ongoing gatherings (held twice a month) in the format of an open lab. The sessions are facilitated by Tin Dožić, and the program is coordinated by Marija Krstanović.

The lab takes place through a format of continuous, open working sessions designed to enable sustained exchange of knowledge and skills within a do-it-yourself context, as well as collective development of sound-art concepts. Its main goal is to encourage free experimentation and exploration of sound technologies. The open lab is accessible to the general public, and participants are invited to propose topics, concepts, and technologies they would like to work on, and to develop these projects with the support of the facilitator.

It is also evident that beginners in DIY practices often lack access to the technical infrastructure necessary for this kind of work. For this reason, Sound Art Lab will provide the community with access to relevant technologies and tools.

Through this program, MaMa continues its activities focused on the exchange of knowledge and skills in the context of open technologies, while offering support to communities interested in multimedia and contemporary art. In addition, the open lab will occasionally host complementary programs such as guest lectures and film screenings, with a focus on contemporary experimental music, electroacoustics, and sound technologies.
