Resonate & DonCafe R+D Radionice – Pozivamo studente da se prijave za učešće

Resonate festival je međunarodni festival novih medija – događaj posvećen promociji novih tehnologija. Prvi put je organizovan marta 2012. godine u Beogradu, od strane organizacije Magnetic Field B, Doma omladine Beograda i CreativeApplications.Net iz Londona. Jedan od najznačajnijih programskih segmenata festivala su radionice, koje imaju za cilj omogućavanje studentima iz Srbije da uče kreativne veštine bazirane na novim tehnologijama i povezivanje sa međunarodnim praktičarima koji dele slična interesovanja. Radionice su dizajnirane da podstaknu proaktivan stav i otvoren pristup socijalnim pitanjima, upućivanjem prisutnih u načine korišćenja moćnih, novih medijskih alata koji su postali široko dostupni sa razvojem modernih, elektronskih sistema podataka.

Osnovna ideja organizovanja festivala novih medija u Beogradu je da lokalno stanovništvo bude u mogućnosti da stekne nove informacije i znanja o najnovijem talasu dostignuća i trendova na sceni multimedije i tehnologije, kao i aktivno učešće ograničenog broja visokomotivisanih mladih ljudi u obrazovnim aktivnostima vezanim za pomenute oblasti. Okupljanjem umetnika, kreativnih profesionalaca, programera i “on-line” stvaraoca, inovatora i trendsetera, Resonate stvara platformu za umrežavanje i međusobnu podršku, kao početak dugoročne međunarodne saradnje sa dalekosežnim rezultatima za razvoj medija i tehnološke industrije.

Resonate festival je dizajniran na način da postepeno postane samoodrživ projekat, uključujući trajne programe namenjene dodatnom obrazovanju lokalnih profesionalaca i omogućavanju pristupa rastućem globalnom trendu digitalizacije i elektronskog umrežavanja. Nakon uspeha drugog Resonate festivala održanog u martu ove godine, Magnetic Field B u saradnji sa CreativeApplications.Net nastavlja svoj predani rad na edukaciji, stvarajući prilike za istraživački rad i razvoj za studente koji su učestvovali na festivalu.

Ovom prilikom, pozivamo studente da se prijave za učešće na Resonate istraživačko-razvojnim radionicama, koje organizujemo pod pokriviteljstvom DonCafe – Prijatelja kafe. Cilj ovih radionica je da nastavi jačanje veština i znanja stečenih na festivalu, kroz saradnju i istraživanje u novom kontekstu. Odabrani projekti će biti nagrađeni i prikazani na javnoj izložbi radova, uz mogućnost finansiranja daljeg razvoja projekta.

Nagrada za pobednički projekat: €400 u dinarskoj protivvrednosti. Druga nagrada: €200 u dinarskoj protivvrednosti.

The Best Kind of Noise – Intro to Resonate 2013

Common wisdom describes blistering noise as intensely undesirable. Our ears are trained to appreciate polite melodies and predictable rhythms and anything outside that narrow aesthetic comfort zone offends our delicate sensibilities. However, getting blindsided by cacophony is not necessarily a bad thing. In those rare moments when you are exposed to something that is visceral, loud and so new that it sounds alien, a few things happen: you freeze in your tracks, the hair on the back of your neck bristles, and – instinctively – your attention locks onto and tries to make sense of the din. You might feel compelled to take a defensive stance when blasted by a wall of sound, but that would be a mistake. Noise should always be welcomed as a friend, rather than a foe, as, like good company, it foregrounds the immediacy of the moment and it rattles opinions loose from the bindings of reason and habit.

Resonate at Belef 2012

In association with this years BELEF festival (Belgrade Festival of Festivals), Resonate is please to announce a specially curated music programme in combination with a free workshop and a lecture!

http://resonate.io/belef

As always, we have joined forces with Dom Omladine in Belgrade to host this unique music programme. On Wednesday 25th July Dom Omladine is the host to Nemanja Aćimović, Vukašin Marković and Boris Mladenović, this fantastic new project from the heart of Belgrade underground. Repetition is a means of exploring the outer limits of rock music, premiering in the city! On Thursday, 26th July you are in for a special treat! Kicking off at 8pm is the Mixed string quartet performing one of Serbia’s most important contemporary music composers – Vuk Kulenović and at 9.30pm, Kim Gordon and Ikue Mori!! Kim has sung and played bass and guitar in Sonic Youth and Ikue Mori who was first the drummer for seminal no wave band DNA, now working of a laptop breaking the sounds of digital percussion. This duo will leave you speechless!

In the spirit of Resonate, we have also put together a small but amazing educational programme. Born in Zürich, Andreas Gysin lives and works as graphic designer between Berlin and Lugano. Writing custom programs is part of his design process independently of the output medium. He also teaches interaction design and programming at ECAL, Lausanne and in SUPSI, Lugano and in workshops worldwide.

Between 26th and 27th July, Andreas will be hosting “The Abyss” a Processing workshop about graphics, animation, interaction and polymorphism. Aimed towards those with a basic Processing knowledge and those with none, participants will learn how to create geometric forms from primitive drawing functions and how to animate them procedurally in 3d space.

Participation is by application only. Apply here

As a close to Resonate at BELEF, Andreas will also give a talk, taking the audience through a few projects ranging from screen, print and public installation – and the custom software tools which made them possible and how they eventually shaped the final result. Andreas will also present and discuss the results from the Resonate workshop.
