CHAOS MICROMEDIA - CIA - APO33 - Piksel Festival - 2006

The Chaos Micromedias project is a new kind of medialab based on hacking & hijacking of electronics & FM/TV transmitters to make noise & images on the micro level . It is composed of workshop sessions to build electronic sound devices (microphones, mixers, oscillators, audio amplifiers, controllers...) and FM/TV transmitters etc., and performances and micro-installations diffusing sound on small and mobile radio receivers and different types of televisions. The sounds and images are collected in the space of the intervention and reintroduced in the context through the mobile diffusion systems. The sounds and images captured are also transformed by PureData automatons and send by streaming on the internet. Micro versus mass, DIY electronics versus customer & factory addict, low tech versus high tech... the Chaos Micromedias project develops a space for creation of micromedia construction & action.
