Description

Acoustic Commons invites participants to join a one-week workshop, taking place online and across project spaces in Aix (Locus Sonus), Ljubljana (CONA), Barrow (Full of Noises), London (Soundcamp), with other locations to join.

The workshop focuses on skills exchanges and digital capacity for live environmental streaming in Year 2 of Acoustic Commons, with a focus on ‘off-grid’ working.

Participants can connect to a project space in person (where possible within local restrictions) or remotely via networked online sessions. Participants will be invited to share their streams, projects and practice.

Areas covered will include:
— Using streams with Pure Data
— Off-Grid audio streaming
— Using streams within New Atlantis
— Using the Locuscast mobile app
— Hardware review - Raspberry Pi hats, audio interfaces etc
— Making microphones
— Listening groups

Acoustic Commons is a collaboration between four arts organisations and a range of associate partners, each with close links to a specific site of cultural and/or natural heritage value. The project draws upon and develops those links, through a range of creative and technical approaches and innovative ways to engage with audiences and places.

Schedule

Details to be added. In general, each day will start with an introduction, with more detailed and in-depth material later on. People are welcome to join for the whole programme or drop in and out. The evening slots are informal listening sessions, with a chance to catch up on things you may have missed during the day, which will appear here and be archived.
