Humming the Ubique @ Hear Here


​Presenting the work : Humming The Ubique
​

The uni­ver­se is per­me­a­ted with radi­a­ti­ons that are not per­cep­ti­ble with our human sen­ses. That which is visi­ble and audi­ble to humans is only a very limi­ted part of the elec­tro­mag­ne­tic and sound spec­trum. Think of infra­so­nic sound, ultra­vi­o­let light or cos­mic radi­a­ti­on. Artist Aernoudt Jacobs, in his new work 
Humming the Ubique, cre­a­tes a mosaic of wafer-thin foils that trans­form such radi­a­ti­ons into lumi­nous fields of colour and arti­fi­ci­al voi­ces. These vocal sounds are cre­a­ted by arti­fi­ci­al intel­li­gen­ce, whi­le the colour of the foils inten­si­fies with vol­ta­ge. The work’s input comes from sen­sors loca­ted along the Hear Here walk, direct­ly trans­la­ting the city’s pre­sent but imper­cep­ti­ble radi­a­ti­ons into this audio­vi­su­al artwork.

SYMBIOSIS: Art in the Age of AI (exhibition)​

417 Lafayette Street 2nd Floor, New York, NY 10003 
23/01/2025 - 29/03/2025 
Tuesday through Saturday
​10 AM - 6 PM


Presenting the work : Luminous Ether - prototype.
​

The exhibition Symbiosis: Art in the Age of AI is a platform for dialogue and exploration. Through this show, we aim to develop a deeper understanding of the symbiotic relationship between humans and machines, and demonstrate the wide range of possibilities for using AI in art. As opposed to only focusing on the currently popular type of AI technology (i.e., “generative AI”), we want to present a more broad conceptual and aesthetic landscape of AI arts.
The exhibition features works by Alexandra Dementieva, Anna Frants, Petermfriess, Aernoudt Jacobs, Eunsu Kang, William Latham, Lev Manovich, and Koen Theys.

Presenting the Dutch premiere of Akoetrope. A unique and self-developed rotating sound machine, which is both an intuitive device and scientific strategy for understanding the persistence of sound cognition. The device is freely inspired from the Phénakisticope/Zoetrope devices that were invented around 1833 that use the phenomenon of iconic memory (or persistence of vision) to create a moving image in the human brain.

21 oct > 24 oct 2015

In the frame of the exhibition 'Once also this was a mutation'. The workshop deals with methods for recording in the field and creating ways to diffuse those recordings throug the installation 'Phantom Melodies'. The workshop is focussed on hands-on experiences.


Heliofoon / Heliophone
solo exhibition

Listen to the sound of... the sun.

On the occasion of the first public presentation of Heliophone , a collection of objects and design principles of Jacobs based on the photo-acoustic principle is presented in the STUK Verbeeckzaal. Operational prototypes functioning with laser or LED lights, stand next to a DIY chopper and a selection of parabolic mirrors. Jacobs sheds light on the different design components; from lenses and choppers to photo-acoustic cells and horns in different materials and sizes. Plans and drawings further clarify the thought processes and design decisions made.

2014-2015

Aernoudt Jacobs is researching electroactive polymers and other metamaterials in collaboration with EMPA (Zurich) and Liquid Things (University of Applied Arts in Vienna) . Initially Jacobs wants to conduct an investigation into a speaker that can take different shapes and can act simultaneously as an artificial sound filter. Electroactive polymers are materials that change shape as it gets supplied with electricity, and are also referred to as artificial muscles. The following months Aernoudt is doing different research sessions at EMPA and Liquid Things.
