There will be workshops on using modular synths, which use electronic processes to make music – using oscillators, sequencers, filters and more. Synths have been used across genres for decades, appearing on tracks by some of the world’s biggest artists, from Aphex Twin to Charli XCX. You’ll be using state-of-the-art equipment, but we’ll also show you free software that you can use which is a standard for many professional touring musicians. These will be led by experienced touring musicians Matt Ashdown and Martin Pease. Please only sign up for one modular synth workshop.
The live visual programming workshops with artist Jess Pemberton will show you how to create live visuals for events, concerts, or digital art where you will have an introduction to TouchDesigner and explore visual performance. There are two workshop options (abstract or 3D). TouchDesigner is free and accessible node-based programming software with many transferable skills and uses across industries. If you want to see if TouchDesigner is for you, then this is a great opportunity to have a go and find a path to get started with resources to take home to continue your journey.
The workshops are run by Moogie Wonderland and provided by an experienced team with appropriate safeguarding training (Level 3) and DBS checks in place. This event has been funded by Penryn Town Council.
