Koelse with defunensemble at siba

Tomorrow 25.11 there will be a very special show at Sibelius Academy. Defunensemble has invited us to play with them. Sami Klemola has Composed a short composition for a acoustic instruments defunensemble plays and experimental electronic instruments Koelse plays.

So it should be quite interesting mixture, and also the first (perhaps last also) opportunity to hear us in a big concert-hall.

After the concert there is also a panel discussion somehow related to subject.

Show should start 20.30, place is Sibelius academy concert hall. R-building
Pohjoinen Rautatiekatu 9

Acid symhony

Acid Symphony Orchestra - Diamonds Of The Night from Jori Hulkkonen on Vimeo.

Couple of years ago I got a call from Jori Hulkkonen. He had a problem, he was planning a symphony for 10 Roland TB-303:s, and he did not know how to sync those. 303:s do not have midi, but they do have older dinsync.

Jori did not want to use dindsync to midi or other commercial products, so we soldered together a custom buffered 1 to 10 dinsync box. 

Daniel made a nice set to flickr about the technical side.

So if you are going to see Kraftwerk in Suvilahti tomarrow, check the Acid Symphony as well. 

And check what boingboing wrote about the project, misspelled our name atleast.

Press release in finnish:

Kokeellista elektroniikkaa ja taidesalonki Artlab-galleriassa

Artlab esittäytyy II avajaiset pe 28.3. klo 18-20

Artlab-gallerian toinen näyttely jyrää voimallisilla maalauksilla, esittelee kokeellisen elektroniikan seuran Koelsen ja lanseeraa kaikille avoimen taidesalongin, josta löytyy töitä moneen makuun ja monesta lähteestä.

Artab-galleria on samalla taidelainaamo ja tehtaanmyymälä, jossa artlablaisten kuva- ja tekstiilitaidetta, bändien levyjä ja paljon muuta voi sekä hypistellä, kokeilla että ostaa omaan käyttöön. Taiteilijat työskentelevät samassa rakennuksessa ja niinpä työhuonevierailukin voi olla järjestettävissä.

Artlab avaa nyt myös nettigallerian, josta Artlabin taiteilijoiden töitä voi katsella ja ostaa kätevämmin. Nettikauppa löytyy osoitteesta: http://www.artlab.fi/?ide=23

Artlab esittäytyy II –näyttelyn taiteilijoina nähdään ainakin Koelse, Timo Vaittinen, Pauliina Pesonen, Mikko Lautiainen, Hanna Asikainen ja Aura Hakuri.

Tervetuloa.
