Monthly Event Series Focused on Electronic Music Production
Sounds from Beyond Sound
"Join us for a presentation and hands-on demo about using ultrasound to make music.
Ultrasounds are so high in frequency that human ears can't hear them. but that hasn't stopped porpoises, bats, and insects from using them to navigate, eat, and communicate. Nor has it stopped humans from using ultrasound for medicine, robots, and yes, music.
Learn how to hear the "sounds from beyond sound" and see what other artists, musicians, and dancers have done to eavesdrop on these ghostly waves." - Michael Johnsen
Join us each month for an event focused on electronic music production, featuring guest speakers, demonstrations and instruments on display. Afterwards, explore what's available from the Musical Instrument Lending Library. This program takes place in the North Wing Music Room on the 2nd floor.
This month we welcome back Michael Johnsen of Pittsburgh Modular. Michael will be discussing the use of ultrasound to make sound --
translating existing ultrasound into audio and using ultrasound in feedback that becomes audible.
Hosted by CLP - Main's Music, Film & Audio Department
Free to the public
