Technologies of Attunement

Olga P Massanet and Thomas Aston have built a custom made VLF antenna to 
monitor ionospheric disturbances caused by solar storms. For this 
event/workshop they invite makers and thinkers to participate in a 
creative sprint and come up with ideas on how to make these disturbances 
felt. Whether it's a device, a visualisation, a sonification, or a poem, 
participants will design interfaces to tune into some of the most 
powerful forces that permeate our world.

In a matter of 5 hours participants will experience what the artists 
have been through in the past 5 months. In teams, they'll get to build 
an antenna, tune it, collect the data and conceive or experiment with 
actual or possible interfaces to make solar storms ever more tangible!
