26th edition of Audio Art Festival will take place in Kraków on November 16-25, 2018.
Audio Art is an experimental and postmodernist art of the close of XX century and the beginning of the XXI century. Audio Art is an integration of sound and visual art. Presentation of Audio Art appears in form of the concert, performance and installation. Audio Art creates new concept of sound source: as an object and musical instrument in certain space and time. Audio Art is a "one person art": composer, designer and performer unify the whole process of art creation. Audio Art uses low and high technology. Audio Art Festival presents individual artists from all over the world. Festival also presents other non-audio art events extending the whole image of the art based on sound.
The Festival will feature installation Perception of the Spheres by Piotr Madeja, made under the direction of Marek Chołoniewski. On November 17, we will hear compositions by Jagoda Szmytka in the interpretation of Małgorzata Walentynowicz. On November 23, Krzysztof Cybulski will perform his latest works at the Academy of Music in Kraków and give a lecture entitled Acoustic Harmonic Synthesizer. The next day, Martyna Kosecka and Idin Samimi Mofakham will give a lecture entitled Sound Walk – an open form and perform their works in cooperation with Krzysztof Gawlas's mobile orchestra. The members of the orchestra create software instruments for mobile devices. Each performer also has its own set of stereo speakers with an amplifier that allows virtual instruments to emit sound in a manner similar to acoustic instruments.
Audio Art Festival events are webcasted live.
