During the three day workshop, the dozen students have got acquainted with things and phenomena like laser, lissajous, pure data programming, audio signals and such, the main focus being on the relationship between sound and image. As a results, the students created pieces using these techniques and principles.
The pieces were presented in a non stop loop. One loop took approximately half an hour. You may arrive anytime and stay as long as you wish.
