The Noise Intoners workshop explores the creation of sound-making and archaic musical instruments designed for street demonstrations. Using loud, deliberately disruptive and visually striking objects, participants will explore the possibilities of collective sonic expression in public space. The resulting sound intervention will be accompanied by anti-fascist slogans and vocal expressions of support for freedom.
𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐩 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞
During the first part of the workshop (13:00–15:00), participants will work together to build their own noise-making instruments. After a short break, a collective sound walk through the city will follow (15:15–16:00), bringing the newly created instruments to life in public space. The workshop will be held in English.
𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 & 𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐥𝐬
The workshop is open to everyone, regardless of previous musical or artistic experience. Participation is free of charge.
Participants are welcome to bring their own objects and materials suitable for making sound instruments, such as cans, whistles, plastic buckets, pieces of sheet metal or other objects capable of producing distinctive sounds. All necessary tools will be provided by the organisers. As part of the workshop will take place outdoors, we recommend wearing suitable, warm clothing.
𝐒𝐨𝐧𝐨𝐬𝐜𝐨𝐩𝐢𝐚
Sonoscopia is an experimental music collective based in Porto, exploring new sonic and performative possibilities through the creation of handmade instruments, conceptual listening and community-based organisation. Alongside organising artistic residencies, the collective presents its projects – ranging from concerts to sound installations – at festivals and events around the world.
As part of the NEXT festival, two of the collective's founders, Henrique Fernandes and Gustavo Costa, will present a new version of their Sonar System project. It is a modular sound system combining organ pipes and automated mechanisms, with sound serving as its unifying principle.
Co-organised by A4 Sound Lab as part of the project Sound Experiments: Innovative Approaches to Informal Learning, funded by the European Union through the Erasmus+ programme.
