Current state of our machines

We still working with two Intel Core 2 Duo Macbook, from 2007 and 2009.

As for the software there is an insurmountable obstacle that is the update of the operating system.
On the computer on which we wrote this, it is no longer possible to install a version 10.8 of the MacOSx system, so we can not install many programs and updates.
For the moment, with the arrangements we have made, we are pulling without problems, we edit audiovisual, surf the internet, do graphic design and layout.

As for the hardware we have had to repair several parts and components:

A fan. The Inverter cable, which feeds the screen. Twice the UpperCase Cable, which connects the keyboard to the motherboard. All these cables have cost between € 4 and € 20.

We have also changed hard drives for new SSDs.

 

In this last repair of the UpperCase Cable we have taken advantage of to do a keyboard tuning, thanks to the piece given to us by our colleague Pablinho.

Recycling always!

NOISEMEDE 2013

Last 17th of August 2013, and for second consecutive year, we made the NOISEMEDE festival from RuralC association.
This festival approaches noise and electronic experimentation to rural landscape.

We collaborated with Acas Saumede, association that unearth from undergrowth this abandoned small village to rehabilitate and invirogate it from culture and coexistence with the environment. Located in a forest reserve in A Bola (Ourense), between Xinzo de Limia and Celanova.



This year 2013 we programmed 6 Galician bands, workshops, installations, and diverse activities that have got that the festival is a festive meeting, but also a teaching event and approach to sound experimentation and nature.
You can see a detailed programme here.

We appreciate the work of everyone who has contributed and helped voluntarily.
Thanks also to the participants and those who came to enjoy another year of this event.
