Jens Brand: G-Player
Anyone who wants to know what the earth sounds like when the surface is scanned like a record should not miss the presentation of “‘G-Turns’ – The Oldenburg Branch”.
In his lecture on March 8, 2007, Jens Brand will present his latest version of the “G-Player” series, which in principle works like a regular compact disc or record player, but with which you can virtually scan the surface of the earth via satellite rather than the grooves of a record. This information is converted into sound. “G-Turns” is the online project celebrating its premiere in Oldenburg. You can select stretches of the earth’s surface that you would like to hear at www.g-turns.com and download the sounds for an additional charge.
Admission is free.
