The project will be revealed from 7:30 to 9 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 14, in the ATLAS Institute Black Box Experimental Studio. The event is free and open to the public.
Trimpin is a Seattle-based artist whose work integrates sculpture and sound across a variety of media including fixed installation, live music, theater and dance performance. He is the recipient of a John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Fellowship and a Guggenheim Fellowship for Creative Arts.
"Trimpin's art is highly technical and inventive,鈥� said Mark D. Gross, director of the ATLAS Institute at CU-Boulder. 鈥淭his is an amazing opportunity for our students who are doing similar work, but also for anyone who is surprised and delighted by the creative use of technology.鈥�
Trimpin鈥檚 most iconic art installation is the towering column of self-playing guitars on permanent display at Seattle鈥檚 Experience Music Project Museum. Other works include a chime triggered by U.S. Geological Survey earthquake data and a coin-activated mallet instrument constructed out of wooden clog shoes.
The ATLAS Institute at CU-Boulder is a center of interdisciplinary research, learning, and collaboration in engineering, creative technologies and design. Attracting researchers and students whose interests bridge the artistic and technical, the building houses the Interactive Robotics and Novel Technologies Lab, the BTU Lab hackerspace, the Laboratory for Playful Computation, the Black Box Experimental Studio and the National Center for Women and Information Technology.
