09/19 @ 8:00pm - Share – free audio & video jam – featured guests François Martig and Julien Bayle

What is share?

SHARE is first and foremost a platform to explore expression, in a variety of artforms. Through its weekly open jam sessions, SHARE.nyc engages its participants and spectators in a continually changing dialog on art and culture. As such, SHARE represents an ongoing exploration of collaborative performance as cultural exchange. It mines the relationship of artistic practice to cultural identity, remapping a multiplicity of cultural discourses. The act of creating artistic content in a multicultural collaborative context is a fascinating and natural extension of the SHARE concept.

Share is an open jam, not just for digirati, but for all new culture lovers. Participants bring their portable equipment, plug into our system, improvise on each others’ signal and perform live audio and video. We furnish the amplification and projection. Share happens every Sunday.

open jams and walk-in sets — Bring your equipment/instruments/gear etc. to join the jam!

audio jam: Prepared and spontaneous music from eight plus simultaneous performers. This is the time and place to perform a piece of music you’ve written and hear it on a large sound system, improvise spontaneously with other participants, get feedback on your latest project or try out that new max patch/software setup. Bring your noise maker of choice and an XLR, quarter-inch or RCA cable to join.

video jam: multi-user live video synthesis. Generating an immersive visual environment, in the SHARE tradition, in which multiple participants are able to jointly compose the video output. Try out and learn about new VJ wetware. As with the audio, walk-in sets are encouraged. Bring your clips or camera or laptop/amiga and VGA, S-Video, or RCA cables to join

8pm, free —

Tonight’s featured guests are François Martig and Julien Bayle (2 different sets)

The Landscape is the center of my artwork; it’s a mirror of our society, economy, politics. “Unattractive” landscapes attract me, so I decided to walk in industrial areas, close motorways where the pedestrian didn’t have his own place. Emotions during these walks are the starting point of my music.

Born in 1976, Julien Bayle is a composer, sound designer, coder, engineer, media installation designer and music performer.

He floats inside ambient and drone soundscapes and can be found inside dub techno too.

He uses a lot of technology and teaches courses about max/msp/jitter environment, Ableton Live & max for live’s addon.

He loves electronic hardware and used to create hard & soft interfaces between things.

He built his own midi controller to control his Ableton Live’s liveset during musical live performance: the protodeck controller. He delivered all schematics, firmwares etc on his website because he wanted it as an inspiring open-source project.

He releases music & performs live as protofuse and under his own name too.

He’s actually designing a controller as he has many and high skills in hardware & software interface design and because a lot of people asks him to make that for them.

He drives his own french company Design the Media which provides courses/training about max/msp/jitter and max for live & consulting about hardware and software interface based on Arduino, Midibox or other environment.

He helps people to design their own futuristic tools for artistic expression. He can really add value to installation project as he crossed network, computer science and programming fields in some previous lifes. He provides interactive workshop around Arduino, processing, midibox and technology.
