ARPs for All - Visiting Artist! March 2-6: Kristina Warren

via the Alan R Pearlman Foundation

"The Alan R Pearlman Foundation welcomes Visiting Artist Kristina Warren to a week-long Residency as she explores new ways to work with the ARP 2500 and other synthesizers.

Culminating projects will conclude later this year as she will be offering a workshop.

Kristina Warren is a versatile and imaginative sound artist, composer, and performer based on Narragansett land, also known as Providence, Rhode Island [US]. Warren presents a wide variety of work, ranging from synth voyages and digital soundscapes to concertina meditations, installations, workshops, and more. All this work aims in various ways to highlight the vast and transportative ebbs and flows of individual and collective listening. Praised as “beautifully organic” (Peter Bruyn, Haarlems Dagblad) and having “a finesse of timbral traces” (Frédéric Cardin, PanM360), work by Warren has been presented internationally at venues including Flux Festival Montréal [CA], Synth Library Prague [CZ], MuseumsQuartier Wien [AT], Experimentik Berlin [DE], IOIC Zürich [CH], The Bluecoat Liverpool [UK], Elastic Arts (Chicago), Light & Sound Design (Brooklyn), and Rhizome (DC). kmwarren.org"

Today the ArpoLoop found a way to mimic the sound of spring birds.
Pure generative bliss, just organic electricity.

"Showing off the new Urano VCF53 a bit :)
In this video, both filter slots are populated with VCF53, so it gets four channels of single VCF53 analog filters. VCF53 is a further engineered VCF51, made with discrete parts only."
