Good vibrations

Kim Ludwig-Petsch (PhD student)

What is the sound of a laser blaster – and why? Let’s discover some basic physics of sound and acoustics with surprising and fun hands-on experiments. If you are not a Star Wars enthusiast, you might be more interested in the question, why different instruments sound differently playing the same note. This talk will give you an entertaining overview of the mechanics of sound and it will give you the option to be part of the experiments.

How the digital turn changes our way of thinking about our past

Harald Klinke (Informatics and image scientist, teaching digital art history at the LMU)

Humans are cultural creatures. We are defined by our history of artifacts. The newest tool to use: the computer. What is the current state of Digital Art? What is the role of digital images in Art History? How do art-historians use the computer to innovate researching the History of Art? This talk will change your mind about art, artists and art-historians.
