Tamarind printers collaborate at ARTSLab

Tamarind Institute AIR Gail Shaw-Clemens

February 22, 2024

We were excited to have @tamarindinstitute Artist in Residence Gail Shaw-Clemons and printmaking students Ginny Fielding and Anna Fiacco in the lab this past week!

ARTSLab Manager Valery Estabrook trained Ginny and Fiacco on how to use the glowforge laser cutter to create precise custom paper cut outs of Gail’s work. The cutouts will be folded to become three dimensional prints!

CITH Workshop: Sonifying Space Valery Perez and Adam Vaagen

In this CITH Workshop: Sonifying Space, Monica Bolles walks us through a series of modern audio technology and sound art concepts related to spatial audio and data sonification using Max/MSP. Working with solar storm data from NASA, she shows how data can be mapped to different sound elements and then placed within virtual and physical spaces. She breaks down the basics of data parsing, sonification, and spatial audio in a way that feels approachable. Using tools like Max/MSP, TouchOSC, and the IRCAM Spat toolkit, this workshop is a comprehensive introduction to building immersive audio experiences from data.
