What do you want to make?

"sound jams" is a modular non-linear handbook with tools to facilitate listen-and-respond jams & publish their outputs

A handbook presenting a method to produce and publish collective sound-based publications. This hands-on guide will explore and share various tools to facilitate sound-making and sound-publishing moments.

Sound can be an informative and important part of any artistic research. It is a strong medium for artists practising any kind of discipline and is often overlooked by visual artists, media designers and facilitators. Thus, this handbook aims at bringing another medium (or opening more possibilities for exploration of it) to mixed-media artists, designers and educators.

(Deep Listening) Sound Jams: Method of Producing Collective Sound-Based Publications [working title] is focusing on bringing deeper attention to sound in the ways we perceive it, and the way we respond with it. The method explores various ways to facilitate sound-making and publishing moments on the basis of “listen and respond”. The invitation is to analyse how deep listening affects sound jams.
