Test 7 - KOMA Elektronik - Field Kit (Electro Acoustic Workstation)

This is the seventh of many tests involving the KOMA Elektronik Field Kit, a device that allows for creative experiments that are reminiscent of Musique concrète. This experiment focuses on a submergible contact mic (Crank Sturgeon, Etsy); a solenoid beat with marbles, springs, and a guitar string; the 0-Coast with a water sensor (minimal use); a toy motor run through a contact mic. A number of effects are also used. In retrospect, I wish I could have miked the solenoid a bit differently. Well, that's why it's called experimentation! The video is shot with the Black Magic Pocket Cinema Camera.

Great stuff. I wish I could find numero 2-6 as I scrolled through rafts of your videos. How about a playlist for the Koma Field Kit? Cheers. Lee

Outstanding presentation mate, the 22 minutes flew by like a pleasant, yet unsettling dream. Thank you for sharing this!

outstanding, beautiful textures

[@djformalin]

Wow....funny & interesting - thx a lot 🎶

You are one gutsy dude to be opening that soda over all those pricey electronics! :) I just discovered your stuff when trying to figure out if I could get in the same weird drone/wacked out space as a Lyra-8, but for like 1/2 the price with a field Kit FX and various sound sources... I think I just may be able to do that. :) Thanks for posting!

[@immersiveworlds]

I have a LYRA-8 as well, another good option is the Stereofield Landscape. You are right, no more opening of sodas!

Sehr eindrücklich und spannend !

Took a bit but it grew on me.

[@dillipphunbar7924]

i liked the slow mesmorphic progression...and some of the visuals, espesh around 17min, were really apt.

[@ciggymarley]

Great! Reminds somewhat of Aube, Staalplaat artists, etc.

[@carlofrick]

Ohhh yeaaa

[@PaulWillocks]

Great use of this awesome bit of kit. I received mine yesterday and also have the Field Kit FX on order too. Keep the videos coming! One question, how do you use the electro-acoustic pickup? I cant seem to get anything out of it and cant find much online about how to use it?

[@immersiveworlds]

It should respond to devices with motors and the like. Works great with a small fan that I purchased and wired to be powered by the DC driver.

[@toximan2008]

powerful!

Neubauten in a box :))

[@lifeonastring]

Hi, many thanks for these videos! i have a question: can i plug in the Koma field directly to the input of my audio interface?

[@immersiveworlds]

Thanks, yes, you could take the 1/8 out (mono) to your interface. The gain can be adjusted by each of the channels on the Field Kit.
