<p>During our third screening of Century 21 Calling, we will be taking a
|
||
|
|
look at the development of satellite communications. From the shiny orbs
|
||
|
|
of the 1950s to our present day SATCOM systems.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>How do they work? How do they get into space? What happens when the
|
||
|
|
systems break down? Why are there no more shiny orb satellites in space?</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>This and many more questions will put into the light of today, via the
|
||
|
|
present.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Later in the evening you can join mmths on a trip through the radio
|
||
|
|
spectrum, to listen to the satellite pirates in GEO Oribt and drown in
|
||
|
|
the noise of the static and signals of ghost satellites.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>mmths is a sound artist currently based in Rotterdam. In his practice,
|
||
|
|
he often is fascinated by outer space activities. His current research
|
||
|
|
deals with harvesting satellite transmissions and signal hunting as a
|
||
|
|
tool for exploring live performance and composition.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>In a series of screenings called “Century 21 Calling” we will have a
|
||
|
|
look at archival industrial films, corporate infomercials, tv reports
|
||
|
|
and historical documentary of yesterday that shaped the imagination of
|
||
|
|
tomorrow and we hold it up to the light of the present.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>“Century 21 Calling” is an event by the collective <em>Save_as</em> and hosted at
|
||
|
|
Varia in Rotterdam.</p>
