Antennae

PIFcamp, 26. junij ― The project builds on a line of research into electronic organisms, now situated within the context of a natural ecosystem. Antonín Kindl is interested in how technology can operate within a landscape in a way that does not create a separate, additional layer, but instead becomes an integral part of the systems in which it … Continue reading Antennae

Rhythm Generation in Live Coding

PIFcamp, 24. junij ― Blaž Pavlica will continue his work on a project developed last year: a system for rhythm generation in live coding. He plans to implement several improvements, including adapting the syncopation calculation algorithm so that it functions in any meter, enhancing the base rhythm generation process to produce a greater number and variety of rhythms, refining … Continue reading Rhythm Generation in Live Coding

Off-grid (continues): DIY prototyping for energy efficiency

PIFcamp, 22. junij ― Off-grid is a DIY workshop following on the topic of energy awareness introduced by PIFresidents Bernhard Rasinger and Uroš Veber in 2025: How’s energy produced and distributed? Do our daily habits affect energy consumption? At what price does energy come? To give answers to some of these questions, a speculative smart device called “the black … Continue reading Off-grid (continues): DIY prototyping for energy efficiency

O Noisy Daughter of the Mountains!

PIFcamp, 19. junij ― The Soča River is certainly good at making noise. But what does it take to make it play some tunes? Approximately one artist-curator (Jani Pirnat), one designer-artist (Tamara Lašič Jurković), a pile of leftover construction materials, a bunch of bouncing ideas, and a pinch of trial and error. Jani and Tamara aren’t musicians, nor are … Continue reading O Noisy Daughter of the Mountains!
Spectrum by Omar Mashaal

Spectrum by Omar Mashaal

PIFcamp, 17. junij ― Spectrum is a Digital Eurorack module for intuitive microtonal sequencing. It bypasses standard MIDI constraints, enabling real-time EDO (Equal Division of the Octave) modulation through a high-precision trackball and mechanical keyswitch interface. The design facilitates neurodiverse melody through organic, improvisational workflows. It features dynamic EDO scaling and a “thumbing” mode (popularized by Toto’s Steve Porcaro) … Continue reading Spectrum by Omar Mashaal

BioCyberdeck – A Portable Listening Station

PIFcamp, 15. junij ― BioCyberdeck is a portable art-science mini laboratory for exploring the electrical properties of living organisms. The project draws its idea from the cybernetic culture of DIY cyberdecks – standalone, purpose-built devices designed to perform specific tasks. While cyberdecks in the classical sense were conceived for accessing digital networks and information systems, BioCyberdeck opens an interface … Continue reading BioCyberdeck – A Portable Listening Station

The Energy Scavenger Lab

PIFcamp, 12. junij ― The Energy Scavenger Lab is a hands-on workshop that invites participants to hunt for electricity hidden in everyday environments. Through a series of practical experiments, attendees explore piezoelectric, solar, thermoelectric (Peltier) and radio-frequency energy harvesting techniques, building simple prototypes and testing how much energy can be captured from movement, heat, light and ambient electromagnetic waves. … Continue reading The Energy Scavenger Lab

Inner Textures — Weaving Sonic Experiences

PIFcamp, 10. junij ― Inspired by the poetics of plants and fungi interacting with electricity, Inner Textures explores the threshold between the tactile and the sonic, the material and the immaterial. In this workshop, you’ll learn to weave on a laser-cut back-strap loom, combining plant-based and animal yarns with conductive fibers to create textiles that respond to touch. Guided by Zoe Romano‘s … Continue reading Inner Textures — Weaving Sonic Experiences
Serial Drama Lab

Serial Drama Lab

PIFcamp, 8. junij ― Serial Drama Lab by Sabina Suru operates at a crossover between a collective therapy session and a qualitative research focus group. It is designed to map the psychological and artistic coping mechanisms we deploy when confronted with technological failure. Rather than treating technical breakdowns as mere engineering bugs to be resolved, this lab investigates the feraldynamics of … Continue reading Serial Drama Lab

A Freak in the Creek!

PIFcamp, 4. junij ― A Freak in the Creek by Aleksander Tendjer is a multisensory installation exploring human connection with water through sound and touch. Set around a living river environment, the work invites participants to experience the river physically — through its movements, textures, rhythms, and vibrations. Using submerged listening devices and wearable tactile elements, the installation transforms underwater … Continue reading A Freak in the Creek!
Self Defense by Karolina Żyniewicz

Self Defense by Karolina Żyniewicz

PIFcamp, 2. junij ― The Self Defense project by Karolina Żyniewicz is inspired by Noah Whiteman’s book Most Delicious Poison: The Story of Nature’s Toxins—From Spices to Vices (as well as other similar publications), which demonstrates how many organisms develop defensive strategies that can be adapted by humans as a broadly understood form of self-defense. In the face of … Continue reading Self Defense by Karolina Żyniewicz
