The fascination for electromagnetic sound waves of the DIY theremin, which was used as a sound theme for some of the obscure US sci-fi film production in the 1950s and 1960s, grew into what the members of the orchestra define as exploring and producing sounds with the help of DIY gadgets, antennas, conductive ink, umbrellas, wire ducklings, air tubes, flowers, and scrap metal. Their live acts are considered to be an experiment-seeking intervention, on-going workshop or performances rather than musical concerts.

The somewhat quirky electronic noise line-up Theremidi Orchestra (TO) was founded as a result of a three-day theremin and theremidi physical interface workshop at Ljudmila - Ljubljana Digital Media Lab in May 2011 under the mentorship of Cirkulacija 2 art collective's Borut Savski, who later also joined the ensemble.

The DIY theremin was used as to produce the sound themes and soundtracks for some of the obscure US sci-fi film production in the 1950s and 1960s. The orchestra members' fascination for the electromagnetic sound waves it produces grew into what they define as exploring and producing sounds with the help of DIY gadgets, antennas, conductive ink, umbrellas, wire ducklings, air tubes, flowers, and scrap metal. Their live acts are considered to be experiment-seeking interventions, ongoing workshops or performances rather than musical concerts.


Generating sound workshops

The nine members of the TO (Tina Dolinšek, Luka Frelih, Ida Hiršenfelder, Dare Pejić, Borut Savski, Saša Spačal, Robertina Šebjanič, Matic Urbanija, Dušan Zidar) with diverse education and/or art backgrounds are engaged in the process of creating sounds by the learning-by-doing approach and use Ljudmila - Ljubljana Digital Media Lab as their base. Their performances are described as an ongoing workshop where the audience members are not merely observers but also active participants and can even make their own instruments at the TO workshops.

The first workshops for DIY theremin and theremidi physical interfaces were mainly concerned with producing the sounds, although with the help of Pure Data (a visual programming language for creating computer music and multimedia works) it allowed them to explore the making of visual images. These were also used at their début performance at City Art Gallery in Ljubljana, which was transmitted live on Radio Študent.

Performances

The noisy audiovisual public presentations entitled Public Rehearsal, First Performance, Second Attempt, Antennas for All!, Draht Orchestra and Score No.1 – Organism Chaos have taken place at various venues, combining art and social spaces: ŠKUC Gallery, KIBLIX Linux IT Festival in Maribor, the M3C Festival at the MIKK Youth Information Cultural Club in Murska Sobota, the LiWoLi Festival 2012 in Linz (Austria), COFestival/PLESkavica Festival at Dance Theatre Ljubljana, Zagreb's I'MM Media Lab, and at the 6th edition of Slobodni Festival 2012 in Mursko Središče (Croatia).

The performances at festivals are usually combined with open workshops for making DIY instruments and gadgets: a pocket-sized theremin, TouchTone sound synthesizers or MicroNoise, as well as other small and portable electronics noise gadgets.
