    The London-based producer and composer, who has toured extensively with the band Kero Kero Bonito, warps electronic tropes into a dizzying body horror.

    • This workshop will introduce elementary skills for working with sound synthesis using the music programming software Max/MSP, in the context of experimental electronic music performances and sound art.

    With the goal of demystifying the interface and unlocking the freedom needed for experimentation, we'll cover the very basics of the software interface logic and how to start creating your own sounds.

    Max/MSP is a music programming environment that allows the bringing together of sensors, samples, synthesis engines and video. It is used by sound artists throughout the world, but also by visual artists and in installations.

    The workshop takes place within CTM’s A2A Transmission series, which through online workshops aims to help sound practitioners expand their skill sets and practices at a time when touring and in-person performance opportunities remain limited.

    Requirements

    This workshop is open to all levels, with no prior skills in programming required. We especially encourage women and non-binary participants to take part in the workshop. Please be sure to have:

    • A laptop with Max installed on it. You can download a 30-day free trial.
