While BC #1 was organized around * *the concept of "other spaces", using the specific architecture at LEAP and provoking **it in order to synthesize new environments, BC #2 combines space and sound.* <http://www.facebook.com/events/340317665985502/> Through exploring the physical reality of sound-instruments and objects, complex *acoustic spaces emerge. Sound of any kind - vocals, instruments, vibrations - become a material themselves, a hybrid. Creating Matter-Incompatible, the exhibition focuses **on searching for the hidden materiality of acoustics, where distinguishing between live-produced sound and mechanically generated playback becomes a challenging self-observation. * _________________________________________________________________ *DRAWING IN THE AGE OF ELECTRONIC EXPRESSIONS* * The exhibition “Drawing In The Age Of Electronic Expressions” deals with visual **art techniques – in particular painting and drawing – and how the role of the artist * *has been transformed by the impact of digital technology, so that ''the fate of **image is from now on numerical'' (Edmond Couchot) and the significant areas are * *now scattered in bits and bytes, until only "point universes" (Flusser) remain. Can **the producer leave the surface and program equipment, with data controlled by * *insects and machines, which in themselves turn into the actual producers or **synthesize sounds into images?* With works by Sanela Jahić (SI), Takahiro Yamaguchi (JP), Julius Stahl (DE), * **Daniel Franke (DE), David Bowen (US).* VERNISSAGE: Saturday 28 January 2012, 20.00 all participating artists will be present With Performance by "Sanela Jahić - Fire Painting". Further Performances of "Fire Painting": Wednesday 1 Feb, 21.00 & Friday 3 Feb, 21.00 Exhibition dates: 29.01.2012 - 5.02.2012 Finissage: Sunday 5 February 2012, 20.00 Opening hours: daily 12.00 - 20.00, Tuesday & Friday 12.00 - 22.00 Free Entry (or donate what you like) <http://www.facebook.com/events/340317665985502/> _________________________________________________________________ LEAP Lab for Electronic Arts and Performance (Berlin Carré 1.
