At TodaysArt Festival, on 22 September, Nora Vaage will give a videolecture on GMO sound art. The panel is centred around Guy Ben-Ary’s cellF, the world’s first neural synthesiser that jams with human musicians. The discussion will extend from Nora Vaage’s reflection on Ben-Ary’s work, opening up questions about his conceptualisation of the neural network as his rockstar alter-ego—and as such, an extension of his body and a “functioning human brain”.
The lecture is part of a fascinating programme at TodaysArt Festival in the Hague, which takes place from 21-23 September.
