‘TOTALLY WIRED’ Documentary followed by Q+A - about Schneiders Bureau in Berlin – directed by Niamh Ahern
A documentary film about Andreas Schneider’s infamous ‘Schneider’s Buero’, the boutique electronic musical instrument shop in Berlin. ‘Totally Wired’ explores one man’s electric evangelism, and the interface he has built to connect analogue instrument inventors with their end-users. The film features an informed selection of inventors and artists alike, including Dieter Doepfer, Junior Boys, Ken MacBeth, Anthony Rother, Jessica Rylan, Daniel Miller, Wowa Cwejmann, Per Salzwedel, Ricardo Villalobos, Magda, Marc Houle, Cassy, Max Loderbauer and more. Against the backdrop of the digital revolution, Andreas worked hard to keep analogue alive.

The Director, Niamh Ahern, was born in Dublin, she studied Communications at Dublin City University, & worked as a producer and director in RTÉ, then moving to Berlin, where she now works as a freelance videojournalist and filmmaker. She has developed her voice as an outsider in Germany to tell stories of people and places from a different point of view. Her debut feature documentary Totally Wired is one such story, telling of synthesiser store owner Andreas Schneider, ensconced inside a crumbling socialist office block in former East Berlin, preaching the way of analogue to a loyal following of infamous electronic musicians. http://www.myspace.com/totallywiredmovie


BBC RADIOPHONIC WORKSHOP presented by Dave Vorhaus and Mark Jenkins (White Noise)
The BBC Radiophonic Workshop, one of the sound effects units of the BBC, was created in 1958 to produce effects and new music for radio, and was closed in March 1998, although much of its traditional work had already been outsourced by 1995. It was based in the BBC’s Maida Vale Studios in Delaware Road, London, growing outwards from the then-legendary Room 13. The innovative music and techniques used by the Workshop has made it one of the most significant influences on Dave Vorhaus, the leading man of White Noise.


FUTURE AUDIO WORKSHOP
Future Audio Workshop is a pan European collective of engineers, programmers and designers, with the main office based in Galway, Ireland. Formed in 2007, FAW’s main aim is to create and develop exciting new audio software for the international community of musicians, sound designers and live performance artists. This work has so far resulted in the release of ‘Circle’, a software synthesizer based on making sound design more accessible to the general computer musician.

Create Digital Music
Peter Kirn is a composer, media artist and technology writer based in New York. Peter publishes and edits the sites CreateDigitalMusic and CreateDigitalMotion and writes for MAKE, Macworld, Keyboard and Computer Music magazine. He is also the author of Real World Digital Audio, a book on making music with computers.

Gavin Burke from Future Audio Workshop and Peter Kirn will hold an informal workshop on making music with your computer, giving advice on how to get setup and how to develop your own custom made audio tools.
