LABoral SummerLAB 2017

Happy to announce that I will be part of this fantastic 2-day programme of workshops, roundtables and installations at LABoral Centro de Arte y Creación Industrial in Gijón, Spain. The purpose of summerLAB is to exchange experiences of community work that promote the creative and critical use of technology. I will give a 2-day SuperCollider workshop and I will also take part of a panel session called “Seeing / Sensing / Sounding”.
