Guest post on Hangar Sonor
I've recently started to collaborate with Hangar's blog on sound art - the first post is about the centenary of Luigi Russolo's L'Arte dei Rumori.

On February 15th, I and all participants in the Master en Art Sonor will be presenting our current work at Hangar.

ZKM - Klangbaustelle
Lina, Mauricio and I went to ZKM/Karlsruhe in order to check out the Soundart exhibit going on there, and we had a terrific time there, not only because of the incredible exposition we attended.
Also, we had the chance to meet Peter Kiefer and Kaspar König, from a sound art master course in Mainz, Germany. We participated in a very insightful workshop they offered about "playing the building", mostly with transducers and piezo mics, which were used to extract resonant sound from parts of the building, and it all ended up in a collective performance in the main ZKM entrance hall.
Cage's "Inlets" and "Variations II" @ Paranimf, Barcelona
As a part of the Master en Art Sonor, there was a concert as a part of a tribute to John Cage's centenary. Sound sculptures and other intruments were prepared and played by each participant. UPDATE: You can find a video of Inlets and a sound recording of Variations II below:
