The Contemporary Music Centre presents Play with Music in July.
Come and create weird and wonderful sounds and images at the Contemporary Music Centre, using the very latest in music technology!
CMC presents Play with Music as its contribution to Temple Bar Cultural Trust's Summer Sensational Festival from 8-11 July 2010. Two multimedia installations will be located in the Centre offering an exciting opportunity for children and adults to interact with sound and vision.
Dinoeye is by Brian Fitzgerald from Limerick, Shane McWeeney from Sligo and Ruairí Mac an Tuile from Carlow, all graduates of the Music Media and Performance Technology Degree at the University of Limerick. Dioneye distorts images through different sensors, which are then displayed through a TV screen so children and adults can have fun looking at themselves in a distorted way whilst simultaneously generating sounds through the movements they make.
Two’s Company; Three’s a Crowd is built on the innate interaction afforded by a park bench. As each individual sits on the bench, music is triggered so a playful interaction ensues between all parties. Two’s Company; Three’s a Crowd is by another group of students from the same Music Media and Performance Technology Degree at the University of Limerick: Liam Brennan from Co. Cork; Maeve Garvan from Co. Carlow; Darren Kirwan from Co. Cork and Philip Hayes from Co. Kerry, all graduates with a keen interest in digital technology and design.
Admission is free and the installations will be open to the public from Thursday 8 to Sunday 11 July, from 1.00pm – 4.00pm each day.
Luas, Dublin's light rail system, is offering 2,000 free tickets during The Summer Sensational. The Contemporary Music Centre has a batch of these free tickets to give away. They will be issued one per person on a first come, first served basis and will be available to pick up in person from The Contemporary Music Centre.
