V2_Organisation and Goethe-Institut Inter Nationes present: 'Sensible
akustische Modules'. Under the banner 'Become a scientist! Build your
own acoustic jungle!' three young artists from Cologne; Felix Hahn, Miki
Yui and Ralf Schreiber design acoustic modules which subtle sounds are
triggered by light and audio signals. Hahn, Yui and Schreiber are all
three graduates from the Academy of Media Arts in Cologne. In three
programs (an exhibition, a performance, and a workshop) they focus on
the relationship between humans and their acoustic environment. Their
modules show that our surroundings are not entirely filled with 'noise'
and subtly re-open our ears for the interaction between sound and
environment.

Opening Monday 2nd July 2001, location: Goethe-Institut, Westersingel 9,
3014 GM Rotterdam, 20.00 till 22.00 hours. Opening speech by the
artists.

Exhibition 'ask 02 & solar sound modules nervous networks' Tuesday 3rd
till Sunday 8th July 2001, location: Goethe-Institut, Tue Thu 10.00 till
19.00 hours, Fri 10.00 till 17.00 hours, Sat Sun 14.00 till 18.00 hours,
entrance free.

'ask 02' (acoustic survival kit)': Try on and experience acoustic
waistcoats consisting of embedded electronic components which generate
sound according to light intensity. 'solar sound modules nervous
networks': a group of electronic particles which move and produce sound
under the influence of light. Together they form an organic system, the
minimum construction for synthetic life: an acoustic jungle.

Performance: 'Schwachstromelektriker & Datenrauschen' Friday 6th July
2001, V2_Organisatie during dot.nu program, 20.00 hours, entrance fl.
7,50

'Schwachstromelektriker': With solar modules Miki Yui and Ralf
Schreiber, supported by Felix Hahn, create live exciting beats and
surprising rhythms. 'Datenrauschen': is a program for live mixing of
sound files, which can be loaded from the local hard drive or filtered
off the Internet. Datenrauschen filters audio and subsequently
integrates it into an ongoing sound collage. (concept/ design: Felix
Hahn, programming Holger Reckter)

Workshops Build your own solar bot and chaotic sound module Tuesday 3rd
July and Wednesday 4th July 2001, location: V2_Organisatie, 14.00 till
