Electric Salon with Davide Tidoni

The workshop is open to anyone concerned with the possibility of interaction between sound, space and listening. The main aim of the workshop is to offer, through direct practice, a wide range of listening experiences in order to lead participants to recognize sound as a concrete presence that puts the listener in relation with bodies, materials and space. Through the practice of specific exercises that stage phenomena of reflection, absorption, filtering and the threshold of audibility, a work will be developed on the perception of sound in space and the quality of one’s listening.

Orpheus Electric Salon

Orpheus Electric Salon returns with a flash-sequence of events in June – weekly sessions to show, learn, develop and play sound-work. Nicolas Collins hosts a series of guests addressing topics important to everyone working with sound.

Calling musicians (electronic and steam), sound-artists, multi-media artists, performers, composers, hackers, instrument builders – these salons cover a range of ideas relevant to us all, whether established practitioner, curious musician or absolute beginner.

Each week there will be hacking workshop, a chance to share your work, a hands-on introduction from expert artists to crucial elements of contemporary sound-work – and perhaps a chance to play together.

Thursdays 17.00 – 21.00 through June
