[microsound-announce] School Of Meat Cutting Workshop - London 26/08/2011

[Ryan Jordan]

School Of Meat Cutting

Friday 26th August 12:00 – 18:00
nnnnn, Unit 73a, Regent Studios, 8 Andrews Road, London, E8 4QN
http://nnnnn.org.uk/

A workshop in low life circuit bending, blasting, and building. Using the
circuits from various electronic detritus and building your own circuitry,
you will learn to create and construct your own psychotic synthesisers and
noise machines.
 
These will then be used to bind together various bits of meat and flesh
(such as sheep heads, beef heart, cow eyes, brains, skulls, etc.) to
create a some kind of deformed mutant meat machine. Through integrating
the dead flesh with electricity and electronic components, the lifeless
meat will, in a way, reanimate.
 
The basic idea is for everyone to work together to create some kind of
mutant sculpture which will form the center piece for the evenings
performance event.
 
By the end of the workshop you will have learnt how to circuit bend,
blast, and build; rewire basic electronics; build noise machines with
555's, CMOS chips and op-amps; integrate unconventional, everyday objects
into your circuits; be adept at soldering; learn how to saw through bone
and molest rotten flesh. Workshop participants take away what they've made
with them at the end, if they can salvage it from the rotten flesh.
