Kyrö Tasting Experience Session

ISA2018 Sessions

Kyrö Tasting Experience

 

Abstract

The practical applications of science in art is one of Camerons core interests, as it straddles the realms of his education and interest and professional life. In his talk he will discuss his approach to creation, which is based on a process of Abstraction. This process was originally developed for the performance art world, but Cameron has been investigating its application to the world of music. This artistic approach coupled with the hard scientific knowledge lead to the development of the core concept of the Kyrö Tasting Experience. The background research and development was completed as part of a team effort at Audiodraft and some of the main scientific studies used in the application of this knowledge will be discussed. Audiodraft approached Kyrö Distillery Company with a concept and created an idea which they did not know they needed. This joint discovery and creation process will be discussed along with a walkthrough of how the main design requirements from Kyrö were translated into a working brief. And finally the finished product and production choices will be discussed, to show how hard science was translated into a soft consumable art.
