Duets: Workshop with 0th

Duets: Workshop with 0th

REGISTRATION: FREE
Space is limited so advance registration is required. Call (415) 863-2141 to sign up. There may be additional space available the day of the workshop. All workshops take place at Southern Exposure unless otherwise stated.

Participants in DUETS are invited to bring instruments and laptops to Southern Exposure in San Francisco and Cinders Gallery in Brooklyn, New York. Individuals will be paired up (one in San Francisco, one in Brooklyn) to make a graphic score to be performed over video conference. Graphic scores are a form of music notation that uses symbols and text to convey information about the performance of a piece of music. 0th will give some instructions on what a graphic score can be, from a dot on a piece of paper to an elaborate landscape, and their history in relation to electronic composition. The duet partners will use a free on-line drawing program that can do real-time edits with multiple users, to create their score and then perform the piece. At the end of the workshop, everyone’s scores will be printed out as documentation of the project. 

Everyone is welcome to participate, musicians and non-musicians alike. Extra instruments and laptops will be made available for those who do not have them.
