/// ABOUT THE WORKSHOPThis workshop is an introduction to the creative uses and possibilities of found objects and self-made instruments within electronic and electroacoustic composition and performance. Split in two parts, the first half of the talk will present the work of a variety of artists that compose with such practices. After mapping a genealogy, the second half will explore the various techniques and tools that one can use and combine with their objects for compositional and performing purposes. This will include a live hands-on demonstration by Pablo Diserens with a selection of microphones and objects (incl. from their &#x27;Tetsu&#x27; series). The workshop aims to spark ideas on how one can create their very own sets of sounds and how to implement them within their respective practice.

/// ABOUT THE ARTIST HOST<a href="https://www.instagram.com/pablodiserens/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Pablo Diserens</a> (aka <a href="https://www.instagram.com/otonenoto/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Ōtone</a>) is an artist, field recordist, composer, filmmaker and photographer based in Berlin, who engages with various topo- and phonographies with a wide range of visual and sonic recording techniques. As a composer, they elaborate sonic environments and electroacoustic sound pieces embedded in sonic ecology and acousmatic forms by fusing and altering an array of field recordings, found objects and self-made instruments. Under their moniker ‘Ōtone’, Diserens investigates abstract industrial soundscapes by manipulating sounds from the real and from their series of self-made metallic objects, called &#x27;Tetsu&#x27;, that they use as compositional tools and performable instruments.<a href="https://pablodiserens.studio/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">pablodiserens.studio</a>
