NoInput
NoInput is a PDP11 project based on the concept of feedback. From the noise of the electronic circuitry, traces of images obtained by connecting the input to the output of an analogue mixing console (edirol v4) are collected. Transition effects from the mixer itself are applied to these visual residues, and geometries begin to emerge in a process of continuous feedback. These images emerging from an empty space are sonified generating a noisy sound resulting from the fluctuations of the images themselves, closing the cycle of sound and visual feedback.
Participants in this project include Carlos García Miragall, Paco Sanmartín, Raúl Leon, Roser Domigo and Jorge Dabaliña from the Laboratorio de Luz of the Universitad Politécnica de Valencia and Carlos Barberá from the Universidad de Alicante.
This project is the result of the research project entitled "Argos. Audiovisual Performances developed from sound and stage space" (PID2020-116186RA-C32).

What is needed

On behalf of LPM:

1) Big table to be able to put 3 laptops, the sound effects, the two video mixing tables and the small sound mixing table
and 4 chairs.
2) Under the table, at least 10 connection points for electric light.
3) Stereo room sound system, two stereo cables (Jack or Canon) to connect to the room sound from the small sound
table that we carry.
4) Two monitors for listening to the sound on stage, symmetrical to the sound of the hall equipment.
5) Video equipment, video projector and hdmi cable to the live table to connect the visuals.

The rest of the equipment will be PDP11, three computers with sound card, sound effects, internal wiring, two video mixing desks and small sound mixing desk.

What the artists brings

The main idea of NoInput is to work solely on the basis of the noise of electronic circuits, both sonically and visually. Transformations are then carried out on this noise to create the final result.

For the NoInput performance we will work on a visual level:
1) with two analogue video mixing consoles, two edirol v4 connected in a loop.
2) a laptop with TouchDesigner installed for the final video output, video output via hdmi.
In terms of sound:
1) with two laptops with TouchDesigner installed and sound card.
2) Physical sound processing effects, delay, reverb...
3) Audio mixing desk between the different audio elements.
