***SOUNDBOXES WORKSHOP***

DESCRIPTION

Discover the hidden sonic qualities of objects from our everyday world in this hands-on workshop, combining the arts of electronics, noise, sculpture and collage.

SoundBoxes are small, primitive electro-acoustic instruments built from a wooden box, a speaker, a small audio amplifier and a contact microphone. They can create a variety of drone and reverb-type sounds through feedback between the speaker and microphone, as seen in this video [https://vimeo.com/34477093]. Or they can bring out the hidden sounds found within everyday objects as seen in this video [https://vimeo.com/16567547]. They also have small touchpoints which can be used to produce a variety of “circuit bending” sounds.

PARTICIPANT INFO: WHAT TO BRING

1 One loudspeaker (new, second-hand or salvaged), or one old electronic device containing a functioning loudspeaker of decent size (approx 90mm/3.5" or larger). The size of this loudspeaker will determine the tone and loudness of your instrument – bigger is usually better. Look in old radios, electronic clocks, hi-fi systems, boomboxes or car audio systems for your own unique speaker!

2 A cigar box or similar wooden box to create the instrument. The box should be big enough to hold your speaker, and the lid must not be thicker than 5mm/0.2". A plastic box could work, but please NO METAL!

3 A 9V battery.

Participants may also wish to bring their own found objects and images to create a unique audiovisual cabinet of curiosities. Some guitar effect pedals can also make the box more interesting.

Further information and images can be found here: http://macumbista.net/?page_id=1897

MAX PARTICIPANTS: 12

This workshop does not require any previous knowledge of electronics, only an interest and a curiosity in both sound and instrument-building.

LENGTH: approximately 5 hours for simple building workshop.
