The Ensamble - Audio Visual Workshop

Tutors: Łukasz Orlowski, Erzë Dinarama

The most secret and unpredicable workshop of all the others, which are running at MEDS this year, started to build its final installation today.

Relax...

A group of 12 students together with their tutors started their work with a short lecture about the sound and visual installations and its possibilities last week. After that they have tried to sketch their first designs and begun collecting stuff essential for their final exhibition. The initial plan to get a lot of trash from scrabyards and junkyards did not work out because they would need permission from the city and there was not enough time to get it. They did not give it up and all together walked around the city and got as much trash material as possible from the small shops, workshops or other organization (such as DIT). They suceeded and started to built the interactive pavillion from OSB and MDF desks, tyres, pieces of guitars and lot of other stuff on Monday.

...work...
Final design with provisional name 'inside/outside' is a collective work which aims to involve all human senses. The participants work inside all the time, but it is necessery to go outside at least for a lunch break. They try to improve their audio visual senses during the work but sharing a lunch on the roof of Hendron's Collider enables them to share taste and smell experiences. The students are constantly improving their skills in screwing and drilling as well as in dancing and singing.

...twork...

Thanks to this amazing experience and the feeling of community the group decided to make one final design installation. The appearence of the 'product' is not the same as it was expected, it is mainly influenced by the found material. It will be a pavillion made of OSB which will connect audio visual space inside and outside of it with the use of projectors and microphones. The pavillion will stay in the middle of studio where the group is working right now. It will be worth seeing!

... and work. (made by AudioVisual group)
