Musical exercises and games; conversations about the genesis and types of sounds, our attitude to sounds and silence; musical, natural and physical sounds; noises; the psychophysical effects of sound waves on human and non-human beings.

Aims of the tool

To discover ourselves in a different way, through music and sounds. To discover how our ego works during musical improvisations that represent "teamwork" in community activities.

Description of the tool

During the workshop activities we apply the results of the most recent experiments of sound art, such as the analogue visualisation of sound waves, the information content of the animals’ vocalisation, perception of extra ear-hearing sound resonance and other discoveries.

We have many kinds of musical games and exercises. Through experiencing how our ego works during these activities (interaction, improvisation), we can learn a lot about teamwork and ourselves.
