Can you see sounds or hear images? In this workshop you will build your own electronic instrument with which you can make music by drawing.
After a short introduction on some basic principles of sound and electronics and a speed course on the history of electronic music, everyone will build their own little ‘graphite synthesizer’. A graphite synthesizer makes your drawing pencil into an electronic instrument. You can now draw sounds or translate drawings into sound. At the end of the workshop the participants are invited to make a little composition together.
The workshop is available for children and adults and can be adapted per setting, contact me for the possibilities.
The Graphite synthesizer workshop is developed in collaboration with Jeroen Uyttendaele.
