All times in Europe/Berlin

Let's have a Synthesizer show&tell and produce phantasmagoric sound scapes!


⚠️ Attention: Rooms changed!! ⚠️

⚠️ Day 2 / 22:00 - 0:00 ➜ Workshop Room 115
⚠️ Day 3 / 22:00 - 0:00 ➜ Workshop Room 112

We will bring some small analog synthesizers and basic audio setup. Everyone is welcome to join without own gear, but of course we would be thrilled to see some cool stuff brought by you! Maybe some of you will bring the ArduTouch synths they have just soldered in Mitch Altman's soldering workshop at GPN :-)

What will we do together?
- study the basic ideas of analog sound synthesis - and some more freaky ones
- explain and explore the various synth devices
- connect everything to form a grotesque sound installation
- have an otherworldly jam together

Stuff we will bring
- several Benjolins (chaotic feedback analog synthesizers)
- maybe some analog computers (they don't know it but they are synths)
- some surprise synth hardware is rumoured to appear...
- a number of cute tiny mono speakers will be available

Stuff you might want to bring:
- your favourite little synth device
- power cords / multiple sockets
- mixers, cables, adaptors
- speakers, headsets

buzzwords: electronic music, klangforschung, patch programming, exploration, music, audio


Trigger Warning/Content Notes:

heavy tonality violations

Has no idea of electronics or music, but cannot be stopped from doing dangerous electronic sound experiments - preferably with analog synthesizers or analog computers.
