Sonic Vehicles

Cyborg Cycles

Cyborg Cycles are the third reincarnation of dynamo powered noise bikes in Barcelona. Joining D.I.Y. sound generators and the live coding software Tidal Cycles in one installative lofi gamelanesc algorave setting presented in the exhibition at Toplap ICLC 2025.

While pedaling you can generate sound and in the future also visuals.
The interface is a computer keyboard attached to the front handlebars of the bicycle.
Use it to code music and images from scratch as long as your endurance lasts.
Buffer capacitors enable a quick switch between riders – don’t let the Raspberry crash!
Pedal, code, and play!
