Working with data collected from the CARISMA radio array and interpreted as audio, we hear tweeting and rumbles caused by the incoming solar wind, captured at the frequency of 20 Hertz. https://semiconductorfilms.com/art/20hz/

Digital Fabrication Seminar HS2018 

...

All inputs and mentoring will take place over Zoom. However, in order to use the 3D printers and to make a video recording photo documentation of the final outcomes, students will be required to periodically work from their atelier in the Atelier or the Workshop. 

Course Goals

In this course, students gain an insight into methods and techniques that blur the boundary between digital and analogue, virtual and physical. Students gain insights into principles from geometry and formation processes from nature. The course provides a number of skills that are highly transferable to various aspects of prototyping for interaction designers.   

Course Structure

The course is Monday to Friday over two weeks, with the first week focuses on basic skills, and the 2nd week focuses on the main project. In the first week, students work individually to acquire basic skills. In the 2nd week, students form teams of 2 to 3 students to complete the main project.

We experience a world ruled by the principles of classical physics. We can feel gravity, mass, acceleration, and observe the effects of surface tension or magnetism. Yet, the substances that surround us are made from waves and particles governed by alien rules that are completely incongruous with what we perceive. Sometimes, one thing is in two places at the same time, or perhaps everywhere all the time. Some substances behave differently if you are looking at them, and when you are not. Others interact with substances that could be kilometres away, what Einstein described as "spooky action at a distance". Quantum Technologies are a relatively new emerging field on the interactions of light and matter, such as high-precision clocks, electronic computers, Laser technologies, all digital communication technologies, medical devices such as MRI or CT Scanners, new energy supply Technologies such as solar fusion or somedays desired teleportation.

(clemens winkler (Unlicensed): just some lines of thought on the topic..
on quantum mechanics:
even if called on a hybrid worldview as "quantum paradigm", it is obvious that we are already living in a networked world, which is more interconnected than ever, where "information transcends space and time, and communication allows us to be at more than one place at the same time, and where action-at-a-distance is very possible and very real."(ia#4 Feng, Quantum Architecture, 2011)

motivation for our course:
"The scientific reading of natural systems and phenomena has recently been adopted as one of the main driving forces for new developments in designing processes, such as neural networks, flocks of birds, genetic coding, fractal geometries and various computational machineries. In this module views on the Quantum Theory, which gives us today " (ia#4 Feng, Quantum Architecture, 2011) They have facilitated our ability to realise new kinds of spatial and material organizations already enriching our understanding of the inner logics of space and material* and we would like to ask in this module for these new kinds of spatial and material organisations through views on Quantum principles. How does it appear and which aesthetics and affordances can it take for us in the field of Interaction Design? From this point new forms of interactions between users and their constructed environments can be envisioned from us through computational tools and fabrication strategies.

*Today the most precise explanation of our physical world , has not only triggered huge amount of New Technologies mentioned above, but has also introduced a revolutionary Quantum world view that considers the material world as a non-deterministic construct, deciphered with probability and interactivity. From this point new forms of interactions between users and their constructed environments can be envisioned through computational tools. Therefore in this module, we will consider quantum world views on a conceptual level to examine new conditions of spatial and social organization with novel computational simulation and fabrication strategies.. 

concept examples:
.. "Quantum states" in everyday life contain many states of a thing in one.. how does this appear?
