Dio3stu at Centro Dados Negros

On the 4th of October 2014 we presented 2 sound installacions in Centro Dados Negros de la Fundación Pepe Buitrago, in Villanueva de los Infantes (Ciudad Real).


made by Vanesa Castro, Iñaki López y Julián Pérez  

One piece is a Dio3stu Bag, as the one we did with Tiago Frois for NoiseMede2013.
Located in the courtyard of the Centre for its interaction with the public. Remembers to the bags with water hanging in courtyards  that people used because of flies. 
This bag hangs from a nylon cord that has a piezoelectric. This piezo transmits vibration of the bag and the cord to a mixer, which applies an echo effect to the signal, what is amplyfied. We incorporated a led with high intensity to the bag.

    The other piece is a dio3stu Grapevine. A grapevine is a very particular element of the culture of Infantes, a good grapevine gives a long fire.  It incorporates an Arduino sequencer with 8 steps, based on the http://www.beavisaudio.com/projects/digital/ArduinoPunkConsole/ to which we made it a circuit bending. It has also a galvanometer that shows variation of the sequence.

   
    Result in grapevine are several physical contact resistances (on the horns of this grapevine) which modify the time and frequence of the sequence. It also incorporates a sampler circuit ISD1820 Sound / Voice Recording and Playback Module Board (3~5V)  which we have made it a bending taking out a potentiometer and a photosensitive cell with a led with high intensity.
   

.

 The sound poem which is activated in the yellow button are words from Infantes related to the  grapevine itself:
la era, las gavillas, los sarmientos, la Antigua, la cocinilla, lo negro (field, sheafs, vine shoots, la Antigua, stove, the black).
The voice was generated with a digital voice and the sampler also has the sound of a flute.
The words are understood when photosensitive cell is activated (green button), when it is off, the bowels of the grapevine can be heard.
