W&K Workshop MUSIC BOARDS

In this workshop, we will explore the possibilities of interacting with things around us in a new way, making them speak and sound. There is a hidden sound creature inside each existing object; our goal is to find a way to communicate with it and integrate it into the creation of our own unique music instruments, and develop techniques for playing the instruments and playing with sound by the end of the workshop. The workshop will be a highly interactive playground with insights into the Thing Theory, music discourse and building techniques via practice and art making. In English and German.

Open to all. Free of charge
Registration required by June 6th: ingeborg.schrems@sbg.ac.at|+43 662 8044 2380
