SynthFest France 2026 Set for April 17 - 19

"SynthFest France is expanding!

Great news for SynthFest France 2026! Dear synth enthusiasts, we are thrilled to announce that SynthFest France 2026 is moving to a larger and even more suitable venue. SynthFest France 2026 will take place on April 17, 18, and 19, 2026, at the Centre de Congrès de la Fleuriaye in Carquefou.

Why the change? The Théâtre de l’Odyssée, which has hosted us since 2023, is a venue we love, but our festival is growing thanks to you. With record attendances in 2024 and 2025, we need a more spacious venue to ensure your comfort and that of our exhibitors. No more temporary structures: the new venue offers modern spaces, a capacity of up to 1,500 people, an 800-seat auditorium, modular spaces, easy access, and improved public transport connections, just 20 minutes from the center of Nantes.

Why Carquefou? The Fleuriaye Convention Center, currently undergoing renovations to meet High Environmental Quality standards, will be ready to welcome us with state-of-the-art technical facilities, catering areas, meeting rooms, and an optimal setting for everyone. This new phase marks a step up for SynthFest, and it's all thanks to your loyalty and passion.

See you in April 2026 for an even bigger and better festival!"

Tintinnalogia: A 17th-century technique for generative music

video upload by Electrum Modular

"Introducing my second sequencer for the Disting NT: Tintinnalogia. This Lua script (written with Claude) is an implementation of 'change ringing.' Invented in 17C England, change ringing is essentially a procedure for ringing church bells. It’s an early example of algorithmic composition, and is also proto-minimalist in its emphasis on a fixed, deterministic process. So...perfect for music-making on the modular!

All Tintinnalogia needs is a sample player with multiple trigger inputs: eg ALM Squid Salmple, Bitbox, or Disting’s own Sample Player.

Random thought: if the number of bells could be increased to 12, the script could be a twelve-tone serialism machine!

Katherine Hunt, 'The Art of Changes: Bell-Ringing, Anagrams, and the Culture of Combination in Seventeenth-Century England,' Journal of Medieval and Early Modern Studies (2018): connects change ringing to 'mathematical recreations' and to Early Modern ars combinatoria such as anagrams. If there was a meaning to change ringing, it was the 'exhaustion of meaning.'

Margaret Aston, Broken Idols of the English Reformation (2015): specifically, the chapter on bells.

Robert Adam Hill, 'The Reformation of the Bells in Early Modern England' (PhD thesis, 2012): dispels the assumption that bells lost their earlier, sacred meanings in the era of change ringing.

Brian Eno, 'Bells and their History,' Sound Unbound: Sampling Digital Music and Culture, ed. Paul D. Miller (2008). 'The same supply of metal would be made into cannon in wartime and would go back to bells after hostilities were over'
