Would you like to hack a radio to make it a synthesizer? Or maybe learn some basics of soldering and coding to make sound with a microprocessor? If you like funny sounds, and you have your idea for an instrument of the future, come and ask how I can help you with that! Bring your toys, telephones, radios and junk, and we’ll find out how to make alien music out of it.
In this workshop, each participant will have the opportunity to create a basic "circuit bending" project. The main aim of this class is to show how it's possible to craft electronic instruments with minimal financial investment and without extensive technical expertise. So! Bring an old radio and some old audio electronics and try to upcycle that - create an instrument from the future and let's make surprising sounds together.
Francesco Zedde (b. 1993, Italy) is a multimedia artist based in the Netherlands. His curiosity is often driven by societal and metalinguistic questions, and much of his work centers on the idea of the musical event as a social practice, employing DIY methods of organization and creation. This commitment began with playing and organizing concerts and later expanded into diverse creative fields, including hacking, circuit bending, augmented instruments, and interactive installations. In his practice, the use of obsolete and discarded materials holds both rhetorical significance and political weight, serving as a stance of resistance against corporate production and consumerism.
