ART’S BIRTHDAY 2008 - ANTWERP

“ Just what is it that makes today's homes so different, so appealing ? ” - Richard Hamilton

ART’S BIRTHDAY 2008 from Antwerp will be performed by the students “ sounddesign “ of the ROYAL ACADEMY OF FINE ART’S – Antwerp. Their project is coordinated and supervised by Ward Weis.

We are inspired by the collage “ Just what is it that makes today's homes so different, so appealing ? ” of Richard Hamilton.

Our contribution for ART’S BIRTHDAY 2008 is a sound-collage with the element(s) the students took out of a postcard they selected by their own choice. Those elements are the basic material for the live performance / laptop concert as part of the ART’S BIRTHDAY party we have in the WINTER GARDEN of the royal academy.


Each makes an acoustic version of their postcard.

Those soundcards are played as the main part in the jam-session.


The original sounds will be available for all the ART’S BIRTHDAY events on the website we make that evening on-line at
