Coming Up from The Signal Path
- 26.06.15 - Radio Show - Airs at 8 pm on Area 3000. Click for a link.
Sol Flare has been on a path towards live hardware, and his music has moulded into a unique deep bass cruise into sound along that journey. We interview Dominic and he jams live for us in the comfort of his home studio. For a rig rundown head to TSP YouTube channel after the radio show airing.
- 26.06.17 - Synth Meet - Howler Brunswick - A discussion panel & feedback session about AI in music presented by Miles Cosmo - From 6:30-9pm.
Miles Philip is a musician/producer/educator and PhD candidate (Griffith University) teaching at Collarts in Melbourne. This synth meet will be all about the viability of generative AI as a creative collaborator in art practice (music). Miles will play music over the Howler system with the aim of gathering feedback on audience response to the aesthetic quality, the empathic response, and ethical response, to the music created in collaboration with generative AI tools. Following the performance Miles will then panel a discussion about the subject, followed by a Q&A session.
Last year was a great year of connection for TSP in the live hardware scene in Naarm. This year we will be holding live hardware events as well as our signature synth meets at Howler, radio show on Area3000.radio and YouTube videos. If you miss the radio show you can always catch up on The Signal Path YouTube channel.
