Her synth work and multi-dimensional audio practice has its roots in the power relationships inherent in technology, how to harness aleatoric practice in a discipline that is often rigid and in exploring the interface between computer science (Logan is also a computer programmer) and sound. She plays guitar in the band Herbert Powell (Lost Map Records), and previously played bass guitar in the band Anxiety (La Vida Es Un Mus Records).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>For many musicians, mastering computer science and coding is essential. Have you ever tried coding and how did that go? How easy\/difficult is it to use <a href=\"https:\/\/mubert.com\">Mubert\u2019s platform<\/a> in that sense? Should the interface be simplified or, on the other hand, include more features, giving more control to the users?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>I have an academic background in computer science and multimedia arts, and have been employed as an audio engineer for the past decade. I have implemented aleatory and machine learning in my work from its outset, as well as in an academic context, but similarly value physical interaction with tools as an artist. I am very interested in any technological developments that level the playing field in terms of accessibility and challenge traditional notions of intellectual property. I think that applications such as Mubert are helping to move us toward a future that I would like to see.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/mubert.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Helena-Celle_1080x1080-2-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Musician And Sound Artist Helena Celle\" class=\"wp-image-2130\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mubert.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Helena-Celle_1080x1080-2-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/mubert.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Helena-Celle_1080x1080-2-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mubert.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Helena-Celle_1080x1080-2-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/mubert.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Helena-Celle_1080x1080-2-768x767.jpg 768w, https:\/\/mubert.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Helena-Celle_1080x1080-2-24x24.jpg 24w, https:\/\/mubert.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Helena-Celle_1080x1080-2-48x48.jpg 48w, https:\/\/mubert.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Helena-Celle_1080x1080-2-96x96.jpg 96w, https:\/\/mubert.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Helena-Celle_1080x1080-2.jpg 1081w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Is the listener a co-creator if he is simply modifying the compositions with his likes?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Yes, but the dichotomy of listener\/performer\/composer is insufficient for the future of human creative endeavours. We must embrace a post-paradigmatic view that will be led by technological development. I envision this as antithetical to contemporary notions of intellectual property, having more in common with folk traditions or &#8220;archaic&#8221; conceptions of art as the representation of a collective unconscious that we all share.
