Circuit Bending workshop @ Roskilde festival 2011 from Obernkarbi on Vimeo.
As part of the Your Space area, Obernkarbi and Anders Børup were invited to do a series of workshops in Circuit Bending.
Circuit Bending is somewhat like the art of hacking and breaking circuits in battery driven toy-instruments and other sound-giving toys in order to (un)obtain controlled bit-chaotic sound collages, variations of “Old McDonald” in §-minor etc.
The workshops were held as open sessions so everybody could come by and have a try in the world of circuit bending.
At the end of the day, each session ended up with a concert were all participants were invited to join in and give a blast with their newly bended noice-makers.
The workshops were held sunday june 26th and friday 1st of july from 12-20 hrs.
Anders Børup and Obernkarbi are part of a rare species among orchestras: The true and pure Circuit Bending band “CEO: Bend-o-Rama”, that does Circuit Bending concerts and workshops (among others at Roskilde Festival 2010).
