ÆSR Lab

Text

The ÆSR Lab (Applied/Experimental Sound Research Lab) is a three-part, mobile and modular sound research laboratory at the intersection of art and science, which as an infrastructure - with precise instruments and state-of-the-art technology - supports interdisciplinary research and artistic creation and helps to open up the development and testing of new technologies. The project focuses on the following topics in the field of experimental sound research: machine learning, field recording methods, architectural sound design (spatialisation) and the reference to the physical world by means of sensors and actuators (physical computing). At the same time, the interface from analogue to digital is explored via the conservation, restoration and digitisation of sound carriers. In order to make the cooperative use of and access to the laboratory and its equipment as low-threshold as possible, a representative and publicly easily accessible lending system is also being developed that maps all available research instruments and their characteristics.
