Pro Tools 10 Tutorial – Using Björk’s Biophilia as a Midi Controller

October 31, 2012 · Posted in Uncategorized · Comments Off on Pro Tools 10 Tutorial – Using Björk’s Biophilia as a Midi Controller 

This tutorial demonstrates how to use Bjork’s ‘Biophilia’ App as a creative music production tool in Pro Tools. Utilising the WI-FI options on the iphone/ipad and a computer, users can lean how to create a connection between both devices, and compose or produce sound in Pro Tools using the Biophilia app. In the Composition and Music Production department at AIM, students can utilise this process to produce and create their own sound and music.

Biophilia is the musical project and overall eighth full-length studio album by Icelandic recording artist Björk. The album was released on 10 October 2011, over four years after her previous studio album, Volta (2007). The album is “partly recorded” on an iPad and, as well as a standard CD release, was released in the form of a series of apps. Biophilia is the world’s “first app album” in collaboration with Apple. Björk has described the project as a multimedia collection “encompassing music, apps, Internet, installations, and live shows”. Material from the album debuted during a concert series which was held in the summer of 2011 at the Manchester International Festival.

Björk’s album project “Biophilia” adds MIDI Out support

October 13, 2011 · Posted in Uncategorized · Comments Off on Björk’s album project “Biophilia” adds MIDI Out support 

The entire Biophilia app album is now available featuring all 10 songs, 6 new to this version: Thunderbolt, Sacrifice, Mutual Core, Hollow, Solstice, and Dark Matter. One can now purchase the whole app album with a single “buy all” in-app purchase. And Biophilia now features MIDI output to drive your own instruments, and is tested on iOS 5.0.”

“Biophilia is an extraordinary and innovative multimedia exploration of music, nature and technology by the musician Björk. Comprising a suite of original music and interactive, educational artworks and musical artifacts, Biophilia is released as ten in-app experiences that are accessed as you fly through a three-dimensional galaxy that accompanies the album’s theme song Cosmogony. All of the album’s songs are available inside Biophilia as interactive experiences: Crystalline, Virus, Moon, Thunderbolt, Sacrifice, Mutual Core, Hollow, Solstice, and Dark Matter.

Björk has collaborated with artists, designers, scientists, instrument makers, writers and software developers to create an extraordinary multimedia exploration of the universe and its physical forces, processes and structures – of which music is a part. Each in-app experience is inspired by and explores the relationships between musical structures and natural phenomena, from the atomic to the cosmic. You can use Biophilia to make and learn about music, to find out about natural phenomena, or to just enjoy Björk’s music.

Biophilia opens into a three-dimensional galaxy with a compass allowing navigation between the 3-dimensional universe and a two-dimensional track list. Take a closer look by tapping on stars within the constellations and you’ll see that each is an in-app purchase that gives access to the inspired combination of artifacts for each new Björk song: interactive art and games, music notation which can be used to sing along karaoke-style, abstract animations, lyrics, and essays that explore Björk’s inspirations for the track. These artifacts bring together conventional and alternative ways of representing and making music to create an environment for entertainment and learning. Biophilia challenges the way we think about music. Here, for the first time, is a music album that exploits the multimedia capabilities of mobile interactive technologies.

Biophilia was developed by Björk in collaboration with interactive artist and app developer Scott Snibbe, and Björk’s longtime design collaborators M/M Paris. The individual apps were created by Luc Barthelet, Drew Berry, Kodama Studios, Stephen Malinowski, Scott Snibbe Studio, John Simon Jr., Touch Press, and Max Weisel.

Features:

• Three-dimensional galactic interface with the song Cosmogony
• Nine song apps available as in-app purchases
• Music scores with karaoke playback
• Abstract song animation
• Lyrics
• Essays
• MIDI out to drive instruments”

Björk introduces ‘Biophilia’

March 18, 2011 · Posted in Uncategorized · Comments Off on Björk introduces ‘Biophilia’ 

This summer, Björk introduces ‘Biophilia’, a project which she describes as being ‘extraordinary immersive’ and her ‘most ambitious work to date’. The multi-media endeavour encompasses her music, installations and live shows. Expect lots of modern technology powered via the internet.

The project aims to explore ideas like how sound works, the infinite expanse of the universe, from planetary systems to atomic structures. Expect the unexpected…

The world premiere of Björk’s ‘Biophilia’ live show will be held at the Manchester International Festival during a three-week residency and across 6 ‘intimate’ shows in the Campfield Market Hall for audiences of 1800.

For these 6 special shows, Björk will be performing new tracks from the forthcoming “Biophilia” studio album. Expect a small group of musical collaborators who will be playing on a range of specially conceived and crafted instruments, among them a bespoke digitally-controlled pipe organ; a 30 foot pendulum that harnesses the earth’s gravitational pull to create musical patterns and a one-off pin barrel harp.

The ‘Biophilia’ live show will travel to major cities around the world following the Manchester premiere.
