bagatelle concrète

So this is how it all started. The media art piece bagatelle concrète marks the first collaboration between Martin and Fares. We recently had it on display at the Coded Cultures Festival at the Museumsquartier in Vienna.

bagatelle concrète is a pinball machine turned into a musical instrument. It is played for making music rather than achieving a high score. Consequently, the score board was replaced with customized speakers. The more successfully the player interacts with the machine, the more intense the accompanying soundtrack gets. The piece maintains the roughness of the electromechanical original game, mixing physical sounds happening on the playing field with manipulations of their recordings. All you hear origins in your style of play.
