SOUNDS OF MARMALADE: Jam session with stuff
Description
SOUNDS OF MARMALADE invites the public to join a cozy experimental jam session; With D.I.Y 'musical instruments' and sound-based constructs, no musical knowledge required! Synths, mics and recording equipment provided, as well as a little crafting station to guide you in making your own ♪♫ Stuff ♪♫ .
We would like to make some musicXpicnic -themed graphics to use for the project and to advertise it.
Cookbook
We are going to connect a lot of materials that make sounds to piezo cables to connect them to a mixer and then edit the piezo buzzer signals there.
We will also gather instruments that we think might be interesting for the jam session.

Space
Needed: Approx. 3.5m²
The vision: A cozy circle of rugs, pillows and low tables. Picnic-like jamming set-up. Synths and recording material as well as the cabling of all the instruments will have to be prototyped. -> We need sufficient plugs
Rider for UBIK:
Power outlet for the middle of the room
Pillows(maybe from Pirate Bay)
Mixer? - Let's ask Joseph today if we can use the mixer he brought to our jam session.
Time
Ca. 1h30 for the whole 'workshop'. Incl.: Time to play-around and experiment & a dedicated time-slot for the recorded jam session. We expect it to be scheduled towards the end of the event.
