An immersive environment in which the public is invited to sit on an acoustic bench surrounded by speakers. The narrative that runs through the speakers is based on texts on improvisation by Walter Smetak, in which the voice of the recorded artists is slowly transcoded into smartphone vibration patterns. It is possible to feel the installation through cochlear (auditory) and bone (tactile) listening. Although the title of the work encourages silence, we witness a landscape of noise in 5.1 surround audio. 1/1 For the installation's sound system an immersive environment is created configuring the spatialization of ambisonic surround audio. The sound distribution occurs in the three axes (height, width and depth), from six individual audio channels, resulting in a sensory and perceptive engaged zone for those who are in the installation. In addition to the five channels of spatial distribution of sound, there is also a sixth audio channel dedicated to body listening, using a subwoofer speaker located inside the wooden bench in the center of the space. A low frequency effect channel is offered which transmits impact, pressure and weight, leading to extra auditory and bone sensory sensations. In the transcoding of the sound a vocoder is used. The voice is transformed into a mini-motor vibration from sampling ringtones. The use of this sample becomes the carrier of the voice formant, so that the recitation of the poem seems to be done by the device. 1/1 Creation and direction Joana Burd Sound design Nikolas Gomes Ferranddis Interpreters Bruno Fernandes and Bê Smidt Image capture and editing Carina Macedo _________________________________________________________________ Texts read by interpreters are adapted from the book Walter Smetak (2019).

The laugh without laughter The laughter without laugh The cried laugh The laugh of ignorance The laugh replacing the speech The laugh replacing the answer The answer replacing the laughter As artists, we transform “silence” into images and sounds. Images and sounds transform the artist into silences. Silence is the great source of the single cause. If there were no rumors, the silence would be very boring. Rumors are the faithful reproduction of silences. We are losing sight of the silences. We create machines that are much more sensitive than our human senses. So; we put "silent mode" on the machines so that they do not disturb our silence. Because machines also have their own lives: the noise. The “human” machine, on the other hand, is quieter, does not perceive its inner noise. In this digital world we have new possibilities for speech and new formats of silence.

Bone Whisper Vibration eavesdropper Força i Pell Living Capsules Solitude Lullaby Formigario Sonoro A Virtual A Sonora A Sonora A Carinhosa As_automatas.web File.img.mp3 Earth Pulse Anthozoa Digitalis Silent Mode 2.0: Body Silent Mode Where do the bubbles go Keys Anguish Massager The box Atucanation Fare Place Four Islands The chatterboxes Other objects and experiences Other video Formigário Sonoro, 2023 Formigário Sonoro is a biofabricated and biohybrid ecosystem that investigates relationships between surveillance, cooperation and tactile listening for insects and humans. In the image we penetrate the intimacy of a community, in its environments and details. The activation between cause and effect is carried out through sensors and microphones, where energy, rhythm and frequency are driven by behaviour and displacement in the rooms. 00:00 / 03:30 1/1 Such sound immersion was mixed from the capture and communication between two residences: that of the ants and that of artists in the 8th edition of KinoBeat Festival. Between two sonic axes, the first is presented from the abdominal and tactile vibrations in the inner dialogue of the communities. The second is driven by the anthill's chemical superorganism. The sensors of capturing light, ultrasonic movement, temperature and humidity guide the code in which the protagonists of the composition are the ants, in their way of walking, crossing, communicating and building a house. Techniques: Digital fabrication, data sonification, audio mixing, raspberry pi programming. Process: Capture of sounds in the residential environments, capture of sensor data, image, and video reproduction Support: 8th Kino Beat Festival Created at: Casa de Cultura Mario Quintana, Porto Alegre, BR. 1/1
- CV Joana Burd
joana burds cv, joanaburd, joana burd curriculum, curriculo Visual artist, lecturer, and researcher in haptic aesthetics. Holds a BA in Visual Arts (UFRGS, BR, 2014) and an MA in Visual Poetics (UFRGS, BR, 2018). PhD in Advanced Studies in Artistic Productions from the University of Barcelona (2025, cum laude distinction). Currently a Lecturer at IE University (Madrid–Segovia). She is part of the research group “Cuerpos Conectados III. Nuevos procesos de creación y difusión” (UB, ES). She has held seven solo exhibitions and, in 2022, presented her work in London (UCL), SBCAST (Santa Barbara, CA, USA), RIW Rio Innovation Week (Rio de Janeiro, BR), and Ateliê397 / Galeria Vermelho (São Paulo, BR). E-mail: joanabburd@gmail.com My work develops within art, physics and technology through interactive sculptures, videos and sound installations, collaborating with artists, social ethnographers, performers and engineers. I focus my practice in a hybrid of low technology assemblies and open source coding platforms. The pieces aim to offer tactile experiences for the public to interact and engage their bodies with the vibration phenomenal. I research how motors and speakers can question objects of desire and the gender perspective in the digital field. I’m also interested in the affective impact of technology and how to create new forms of dialog through touch and haptic devices.

[+] With this project, we wish to bring the powerful planetary movement of tectonic plates and their continuous dissemination of energy closer to us, as a way to reflect on risk and instability. The audience steps onto a grass-covered wooden platform, and through sound, bass-vibrations and touch, experiences the earth as a living organism - one which we inhabit and whose energy and behavior we continuously alter. What instability does the movement of the earth present? How vulnerable are we? By reflecting upon the earth’s inherent and continuous movement, Earthpulse portrays a corporal-temporal journey, connecting to the past, and by inviting the public to experience the space in the present - offers a future. 1/1 1/1

The art work invites the public to type in text software created by us, and to manipulate the magnifying glass objects that reveal the image of the monitor. In addition to proposing interaction with writing, it is through the magnifying glass that the mirror image of the screen is discovered - a webcam positioned in front of the writer. In this technological gadget designed by artists Joana Burd and Laura Pujol, the image is revealed as a double mirror - the audience is reflected and writes reflections at the same time. The work was designed especially for Casa Baka's Registro no.3 exhibition also consists of an analyzer device of a supposed or evident polarity of Brazil. 1/1 1/1

Variable dimensions. . Inside Voice is an invitation to feel and listen with body through a kinesthetic chair. The embedded technologies transcode the sound picked up by the microphone and transmit it to the chair. To amplify the vibratory aspect the cones were removed from the speakers and we inserted and amplifier and a Arduino between the input (microphone) and output (chair). In addition, the work has a computer that activates PureData software, making the a bass and slow sound. The treble is eliminated and with it any recognition of the words being spoken. Contributors: André Diestel, Felipe Merker Castellani, Camila Brum, Ilana Bonder and Matheus Schiaffino. Interaction: Form a pair.

These online interviews, each lasting 30 minutes, were funded by the Scholarship Personal Investigator Novell (FI) Cuerpos Conectados, ES. The artists interviewed include Stefanie Egedy, Eduardo Montelli, Felipa Pinto and Anaisa Franco. The full content of these interviews is set to be published on [joanaburd.com/interviews] after the PhD research presentation. The anticipated publication date is in early 2024, consistent with a prior agreement. Stefanie Egedy Interview with Joana Burd 18 of August 2023 https://youtu.be/KO3Qb8vFTDI Stefanie's Website: https://stefanieegedy.com/ Audio Transcription: Burd > How does your creative process work? Can you articulate any kind of methodology you use? Egedy > When we're talking specifically about my research, or more broadly my approach to sound, my understanding evolved the more I engaged with it. I realized that the quality of the sound was paramount in my experience. At a macro level, I prefer a sound generated at a high quality. It's not necessarily about right or wrong, but more about the clarity and pleasantness of the sound wave. The speaker system plays a crucial role in the creative process. In my perspective, a bad speaker can ruin good work. If we're not talking about my specific work with low frequencies, that's it. "Bodies and Subwoofers" serves as the title because it encapsulates everything - the name of the work, the methodology, and the research. The methodology usually involves three steps. The first step is understanding the dimensions of the room. Initially, my approach was focused on the minimum number of speaker capsules needed to achieve the sound massage level I deemed important. However, my perspective has shifted. Now, the first step is understanding the room itself. I've realized the sculptural aspect of the speaker and the experience it offers to the listeners is vital. So, it's about the speaker as a sculpture and harmonizing it with the room rather than just the sound it produces. Once that's established, the second step is to understand, in that room and with that speaker arrangement, which low sound frequencies have very few or almost no tonal characteristics and are therefore perceived by the body. These are what I term "transparent". While it's impossible to eliminate all other wave returns that create additional sonorities in the room, I choose the ones that are more pleasant or those that, in my view, don't cause discomfort due to the room's vibration. The final step, once there's clarity about the room's sound, is the compositional part. This involves selecting and arranging sounds for the piece. An essential aspect of my work is understanding the audience and the context. The contextual relationship is crucial. If I'm designing a piece for a club, it might be more rhythmic, referencing faster electronic dance music. But in a more relaxed setting, I have greater freedom. I like to explore rhythm, but I can also delve into other compositional forms that might demand more from the listener. It's not always immediate, like electronic dance music. Burd > Do you believe that the vibration or the effect of your work can be considered a mode of knowledge or self-awareness? Egedy> Yes, I absolutely believe so, 100%. The vibrations and the effects they generate are more than just sensory experiences. They tap into deeper levels of consciousness and allow individuals to connect with aspects of themselves that might remain dormant otherwise. Burd > When we work with vibration that is not just limited to our ears and our brain, per se, how do you view this? Do you think about it? Do you put an emotional intention behind it or is it more of an aesthetic approach when you arrange it? Egedy > Entirely, it's deeply intentional. In the early days, there was always a connection to the body, which drew me to frequencies because I felt them. But today, for me, it's undeniably an intense experience. The way I orchestrate it, many people have never felt it before. My goal is for the participant to have a transformative journey - a before, during, and after. Ideally, the "during and after" would be feelings of relaxation, reduced stress, tension, anxiety, and even physical pain alleviation. My art is increasingly becoming therapeutic, not just aesthetic. It's about creating a pleasant, inviting, and relaxing experience so people can be open and vulnerable. I see people striving to connect with my work. In my perspective, for my work to achieve its desired effect, it cannot be something aggravating. I could create a sound that's annoying, where no one would want to remain in the room, but that's not my aim. I want the opposite. While what might be soothing for one person could be disturbing to another, given the intense nature of the sound, I strive to make it as universally inviting as possible. Burd> Do you always listen to your pieces in the intended environment before setting them up? I understand there's a vast difference between experiencing a sound art piece, say with quality headphones at home, and working on a composition in a real space, much like you explained in your creative process. There's the dimension of the physical space, the equipment setup, and how it's all orchestrated. How does that work for you? Egedy> My work is undeniably site-specific. That's what I find magical about low frequencies. Certain elements simply won't work in some spaces, while others might. Every space is unique, just as every organism is. There isn't a one-size-fits-all approach. I have to be in that space, with the final arrangement, fully immersed. Of course, there are preparatory levels I can execute from my computer, but a simple repositioning of a speaker can entirely change the sonic experience. I must be there, I must mix for that specific room. It's 100% dependent on being present in the environment. While it's a wonderful thing, it also can be seen as a limitation. I can't remotely work on it. I also wouldn't trust anyone else to take my piece and adapt it to a space. I have a specific vision, and only I truly know how it should be executed. Burd> From what I've observed, does it make a difference to you whether the space is indoor or outdoor? How do you navigate this relationship? Egedy> It's a constant dialectical relationship with all elements. I view reality as a vast dialectical interplay of things. We live this at all levels, whether we want to or not. It's just another element, another iteration of that. If you've seen my recent video from the mountains, the one I shot at the castle, you'll understand. I created a piece in the mountains, and it was quite challenging. After working so much, like in urban industrial settings, testing these sounds against nature was a whole new game. So, being in the midst of greenery, I had to ask myself, "What makes sense here?" Yes, every facet of the work, from the lighting conditions, whether or not there'll be seating, how often it plays, and at what time - all these aspects are site-specific and consider the unique conditions and relationship of the location. But I believe that's how life should be. When you're conversing with someone, you have to understand the context, the hermeneutics of the situation. Everything is contextual. Burd> How does the relationship between silence and auditory stimulation function in your work? Egedy> In my work, I strategically incorporate moments of silence juxtaposed against distinct auditory signatures, which might be intense for some, especially if it's an unfamiliar sensation. But I also use a kind of sonic signature that might be overwhelming for some, simply because it might be something they've never experienced before. I actually enjoy that challenge, that push and pull. It's incredibly potent. So, I tell my audience, "Take that in!" [Laughs]. I view my work as a medium to confront avoidance. Maybe you don't want to acknowledge a knee problem, or perhaps you're ignoring a friend's plea for help. In a way, my work serves as a metaphor for the ignorance we all, at times, display in our lives. With my pieces, you're forced to feel. There's no escaping it. [Laughs] Many people have shared their emotional reactions with me. Typically, it ranges from relaxation to excitement. Some even mention a kind of sensual arousal, but mostly it's just an overwhelming rush of emotions.

Conceiving the machine in the very structure of man, the post-human advent - although somewhat apocalyptic - serves as a reading to understand our place in contemporary times: they say that carnal matter is obsolete in the face of technological intelligence. Obsolete is still the technological material, quickly disposable and of short duration. Given Joana's work, it is up to us not to reinforce the dualism between machine and man, but to investigate its logic: if the body cannot cope with the artificial advance, what use do we make of these tools? ” Fragment of Pollyana Quintella's text "Homo Cibernecticus".
