Can Printed Electronics Save the Music Industry?

In this exclusive preview of a panel presentation to be given at SXSW Interactive in Austin, Texas this March, we are delighted to welcome Jon Rogers from the University of Dundee, Kate Stone from Novalia, Pete Thomas from Uniform and Tommy Perman from FOUND.

Printed Electronics is an emerging technology with the potential to change how we interact. We can now reliably print basic electronic components onto paper and card; and when connected to conventional electronics, has the potential to re-connect digital to physical.

#UNRAVEL is a new work by FOUND and Aidan Moffat completed during a residency with New Media Scotland. This collection of devices forms a reactive sound installation in which visitors can unravel the truth about a narrator’s life by playing records from his collection.

A record player then controls a series of custom musical instruments. These self-playing instruments soundtrack the story of the narrator as he recounts a memory from his life. Each record represents a different memory, but they sound different every time they are played.

To launch their six week Vital Spark residency with us, FOUND have chosen Christopher Nolan's non-linear chronicle of a man who can no longer build new memories, a case of anterograde amnesia.

Using Polaroids, notes and tattoos he attempts to avenge the murder of his wife, the act of which was the last thing he remembers. The film will be presented both 'forwards' and chronologically for two audiences simultaneously.
