Time’s Up and servus.at are holding a workshop focused on working
practice in cooperation with the well-known label Staalplaat
http://www.staalplaat.org. The workshop is addressed to all
autodidactic amateurs and composers from around the area. This
workshop offers the unique opportunity to work together with
Geert-Jan Hobijn and Carlo Crovato for three days on creating a
sound composition from different equipment, then celebrate its
world premiere in the harbour of Linz. The workshop starts out
with a lecture by both artists, introducing an exceptional approach
to interact with sound and composition. The exploration, discovery
and hearing of sound as well as the joy to go beyond the
understanding of current music and composition ideas are the
motivations for attending this workshop.
Please bring: 2 disused every day devices (mixer, vacuum cleaner,
electric tooth brush or other seemingly useless electronic devices,
or also old computers) Different tools: screwdrivers (different
sizes), wire cutters, hot glue gun,
metal saw, etc.
