Introducing prospective students to the department’s degree programs and research – this is what the Open Day at Anhalt University on June 1st is about. At this year’s event, the laboratory choir of the Erasmus research project showcased its talent, demonstrating how computer science and technology can be harnessed creatively and innovatively. With two pieces from its repertoire, the choir singers impressed audiences across national borders.
This illustrates that computer science can transcend boundaries, whether they be national, disciplinary, or mental barriers. The laboratory choir of the research project Choir@Home – in collaboration with the University of Liechtenstein, the Mozarteum in Innsbruck, and the expertise of Professor Carôt of Anhalt University – not only surpasses traditional choral music boundaries but also expands technical perspectives and the canon of information transmission, thus overcoming numerous boundaries in the process.
Labor Choir Performs at the University of Anhalt’s Information Day
Bringing future students closer to the studies and research focuses of the faculty – these are the tasks of the Information Day at the University of Anhalt. This year, the event was enriched by a special highlight: the laboratory choir of the Erasmus research project Choir@Home performed and impressively demonstrated how innovative technologies in computer science and technology can be creatively applied.
Musical High Tech
The performance did not only focus on choir management and outstanding sound but also on the technological advancements that enable the laboratory choir’s joint music-making. The digital laboratory choir’s performance was not only a musically enriching but also a wonderful example of what networking without data transmission delay can achieve. The visitors of the Open Day had the chance to enjoy to the diversity of computer science studies as well as the wide range of applications for computer scientists.
International and Interdisciplinary Cooperation
The choir is part of the research project Choir@Home, which was developed in close collaboration with the University of Liechtenstein, the Mozarteum in Innsbruck, and Professor Carôt from Anhalt University of Applied Sciences. This cooperation demonstrates how musical and technological disciplines can merge, opening up new, exciting perspectives. The laboratory choir’s work not only extends the traditional boundaries of choral music but also the technical possibilities of information transmission. By using modern technologies, a new canon is being created that enriches both art and science. The impressive performance of the laboratory choir vividly demonstrates the potential inherent in the networking of different disciplines and international collaborations. It offers an inspiring glimpse into the future of computer science and music and its transformative power. Anhalt University and the Erasmus research project Choir@Home have proved that together they are capable of paving innovative and creative paths for the future. The Open Day once again highlighted that Anhalt University is a great place for providing students with a base to explore their enthusiasm, interests and ideas.
