Participants will use the spoken word, field recordings and found sounds to generate a pallette of sounds. Then this ''pallette'' will form the basis of an abstract musical soundscape using soundtoy. The two sessions will culminate ina few five minute performances at the end of workshop 2. We will also be listening to some examples of electronic music from the 1960s to the present day.

Auhtor Eleanor Thom will be leading creative writing workshops on Tuesday 10, 17 and 24 February, 7-9pm in Timespan. This workshop is open to adults and young people aged 12+

Write with your eyes, your mouth, your nose. Write with your ears, particularly with your ears. Give your character a black eye, give ‘em a texas twang, make their skin soft as mashed potato. Lock the whole gang in the ice house. Enter them in a singing competition. Pen punchy prose, or if you’re more composed, cook up a lyrical sentence that melts in the mouth. This series of workshops in creative writing will be full of tips and techniques.
