Golan Levin: The truly soft side of software

[jccarbunkle]

Oh my god this really sucked

You can't really dance to it.

Music is not always about dancing.

it would be even cooler if he had a different image :)

That's like an advanced "Coagula Light" sort of program, awesome digital signal quality too, I'd have enjoyed a seat at a performance like that.

Indeed! It's a reverse sonogram algorithm, very fun.

he does not need to comment on the work he showed. this art is meant for a certain type of person and unfortunately most people in this world will not appreciate it. i believe this together with additions to the central idea is the art of the future. if everyone were to like it then it would be garbage and not just because.

I saw Levin in Berkeley at their New Media lectures. I gotta say the sound work is the most interesting, but his Google graphs are good too, although as of then he had done nothing with the data.

I saw STS9 fall 2007 - my reaction: I am glad that someone is pushing the limits of music & entertainment, and that i saw it once - i will NEVER return.

This performance is the same - it is different & bold - that said it may be entertaining for a rare person. I will not suggest for anyone to watch - in 100 years it may be found and perhaps its confusion will be a legacy.

[shauntollerton]

Very interesting to see/hear.

I would have preferred if he had commented the things he showed.
