Dubstep Carrots - your gateway vegetable to accessible music making
Talk by Lee Holder / Lee Chaos
Do we decide if we can play an instrument before we've even seen it? How much of our self-belief about our musicianship is based on adverse childhood experiences with cheap conventional instruments? How can we break through this barrier and rediscover the joy of noise, sound and musical play by shifting the idea of what constitutes a musical instrument? Join us as we explore new ways of making music and sound with interfaces created from root vegetables, recycled materials and willing human test subjects in front of a live studio audience. Using a range of sensors, interfaces and microcomputers, we will explore accessible ways of making music and discuss why this matters so much for those who face disabling barriers when using conventional instruments. Sometimes, the bet musical instrument is a carrot... join us to find out why.
