To introduce audio performers with an exciting new type of physical
audio interface known as AudioCubes (see www.percussa.com for more info
on AudioCubes), a three-day hands-on workshop will be held during the
days succeeding Test_Lab: Audio_Objects . The workshop will be led by
audio performer Kim Cascone and the inventor of AudioCubes, Bert
Schiettecatte, and will result in an AudioCubes performance by the
workshop participants during Test_Lab: Audio_Objects.

*Program*
The first day of the workshop will be spent learning how to set up the
AudioCubes for either control or audio, interfacing them with existing
software, and learning how to incorporate the tactile user interface
into the participant’s repertoire.
During the second day, the workshop participants will craft the
framework for a new sound piece.
On the third day they will rehearse the piece, work out bugs, develop a
presentation, and perform during Test_Lab: AUDIO_OBJECTS (also featuring
Gijs Gieskes, Michel Waisvisz, Edwin van der Heide, Brigit Lichtenegger
(aka Evo Szuyuan) and Annabeth Robinson (as AngryBeth Shortbread)).

*Registration*

background to Michel van Dartel (michel at v2.nl) before the (extended
deadline of) 12th of October.
Workshop fee: students 80 EUR / professionals 110 EUR (includes lunch on
