Audience: Anyone with an interest in finding out about sound sculpture and multichannel music can attend. Non-specialists of any age (16+) are welcome.
Gerriet K. Sharma, world expert in sound sculpture, multichannel composition, and site-specific installation, will lead a workshop featuring the IKO, a unique 20-sided loudspeaker array that he co-developed. SPARC Lab includes one of only five IKOs in the UK, and Sharma will demonstrate the IKO’s unique capabilities as they contrast SPARC Lab’s Ambisonic dome, a 24.4-channel loudspeaker system surrounding the public. Learn more about the IKO here and Sharma’s work with the IKO here.
Workshop participants are invited to the following evening concert featuring music and sound art composed specifically for the IKO and Ambisonic dome by Sharma and other international artists. Please sign up for the concert separately here.
