MOVING SOUNDS FESTIVAL | OSCILLOSCOPICS w/ BERNHARD RASINGER
OSCILLOSCOPICS with BERNHARD RASINGER 2-3 PM
In this free Moving Sounds 2017 workshop, Bernhard Rasinger will introduce you to modular synth circuits, oscilloscopes, and the visual aspect of electronic sound synthesis. There will be basic analog oscilloscope training to visualize sounds and other electric signals in real-time. Once you are acquainted and are all tangled up in a knot of cables, it is time to let the electrons fly. The dance of signals will take you on a journey, where sine- triangle and square waves are your travel companions. The oscilloscope will tell you little stories about the circuits you are probing. We will talk about obsolescence, lissajous figures and phase modulation.
