FRA STILLESTED TIL SPILLESTED

Aalborgs legendariske aktivitetshus og spillested, 1000Fryd, er lukningstruet og har brug for din hjælp! Som følge af en naboklage skal huset gennemgå en massiv renovering, der løber op i flere millioner, og de penge har 1000Fryd ikke.

Stedet har de sidste 40 år haft uvurderlig betydning for Aalborg som by og for alverdens musikalske undergrundsscener både nationalt og internationalt. Det hele er båret oppe af de hundredvis af frivillige ildsjæle, der igennem årene har engageret sig i og udviklet sig med stedet.

1000Fryd er vigtigere end nogensinde og vil gøre alt for at overleve, men vi har brug for din støtte.

Vi modtager ethvert bidrag med kyshånd og er evigt taknemmelige for jeres hjælp.

Vil du donere direkte, kan det også gøres via bidrag til vores bankkonto på 1551-4930179574. Husk at skrive, hvem afsenderen er.

Alle som donerer, uanset beløbets størrelse, kommer på vores store takkeliste i porten.

❤️1000Fryd

Aalborg's legendary activity house and venue, 1000Fryd, is in danger of closing and needs your help! As a result of a neighbor's complaint, the house must undergo a massive renovation that costs several million, and 1000Fryd does not have that money.

For the past 40 years, the place has been of inestimable importance for Aalborg as a city and for many different underground music scenes, both nationally and internationally. All made possible by the hundreds of passionate volunteers who over the years have engaged in and developed with the place.

1000Fryd is more important than ever and will do everything to survive, but we need your support.

We welcome any contribution and are eternally grateful for your help.

If you want to donate directly to us, it can also be done via a contribution to our bank account on 1551-4930179574. Remember to write who the sender is.

Everyone who donates, regardless of the size of the amount, will get its name our big thank you list in the gate.

// About the project //

Synergia 2.0 is an immersive interactive VR installation created by Oana Camelia and Maroš Pekárik. It investigates the state of cognitive flow through cross-modal interactions between body, sound, and visuals.

Real-time audio synthesis is continuously generated by body movements which influences, in turn, the audio-reactive virtual environment. In this translation of motion, position and posture into a divergent dimension of sound and visuals, the participants are invited to perform all the parts as a great whole – a synergistic composition.

Due to the COVID-19 situation, we are upholding all the restrictions against the virus by creating a setting with distance between the members of the audience, as well as maintaining a thorough hygiene and sanitizing the gear after each use. No more than 20 persons are allowed in the space of the exhibition.

Through the exhibition format, Synergia 2.0 can be experienced in two ways – as part of the audience and as a participant. Participants are invited for a half an hour individual interaction with the VR system.

In a technologically saturated modern society, the young generations are faced more and more with symptoms related to media addiction, scattered attention spans, social and emotional disorders, and physical symptoms of stress, among others. Therefore, as technology is becoming more and more prevalent in everyday life, researchers and artists are showing a growing interest in designing technologies that can improve mental and physical well-being.

The state of cognitive flow has shown to have positive effects on human well-being, the quality of experience and everyday performance. Synergia 2.0 investigates the state of cognitive flow in the context of virtual reality. The system is designed with high consideration to the qualities and triggers of flow, incorporating virtual reality, audio and visual feedback, movement, cross-modality, and creativity as design elements meant to facilitate this state. Through an artistic investigation of VR, Synergia 2.0 seeks to explore and understand positive psychological states in relationship to technology.
