Acoustic laptops workshop
15 September 2013 17:00 — 21:00
Pixelache welcomes Norwegian sound artist Tore Honoré Bøe to Helsinki where he will lead a workshop on the construction of “acoustic laptops”. The workshop will utilise found materials and urban waste in the Pasila area, and participants will create their own micro-sound worlds inside a wooden box/container of their own choosing. In building an acoustic laptop, one can rediscover sonic properties of small, everyday objects, question our digital culture and reclaim the waste objects of urban settings.
The workshop is from 14:00 – 18:00 on Sunday, 15 September and will occur at Dodo’s Kääntöpöyta space. There is space for ten participants; please register here, first come first served.
