About this Event
Three walkmans, three effect pedals, two mixers, a mini-synthesizer, microphones and several feedback loops create a noise-scape that ends in silence and emptiness. In this workshop, Stefan Tiefengraber extends the predefined functions of the used devices (after their end) through experimentation and unconventional applications. In this way he achieves new and unpredictable results. Workshops are free, all-ages, registration encouraged but not required.
