Description: | Wearables worn by sound artists tend to reveal more about the aesthetics of the technology in-forming the aesthetics of the design, sensors, switches and actuators all visible. Danjoux’ s work with the DAP-Lab initially foregrounded some of the technologies visually in her design concepts, but more recently has avoided an explicit technologized look, returning to the softness/tactility of things rather than wires, switches and controllers. Danjoux discusses specific design concepts for wearables and “dysfunctional” fashion, in regard to choreography and interactive systems or instrumental architectures developed by the DAP-lab’s artistic productions – experiments with choreosonic gestures and affective interfaces (examples will be shown on film, referencing UKIYO [Moveable Worlds],2010, and for the being [Victory over the Sun],2014). Briefly analyzingfilm excerpts from DAP-Lab’s audible and biosensory choreography, Danjoux will conclude with some reflections on notions of fashion technology’s morphing and shape-shifting power, but also address the poetics and retro-garde politics of the work and its emphasis on corporeal noise, and noisy disalignments of control technologies. |
