Drop-in family-friendly science & noise activities

The unstoppable Rochdale Science Initiative are back with another extravaganza event- themed around climate change & sustainability.

Come and try our drop-in workshop activities, learn more about e-waste and how you can help, get your nose tested and your fingers Bass Buzzed too.

Seems like everyone is retreating these days so we thought we'd join the rout in our own way.

This will be a 2 night residential in the North West, most likely in the Autumn, with limited places (around 15) and a provisional early bird cost of £150. Activities will include:

• Build a temporary site-specific immersive and interactive sound installation as a group
• broadcast live music, soundscape & other audio onto internet radio
• workshop: make and keep your own contact mic/electromagnetic mic or hydrophone
• use of sensors, sound controllers and portable battery-powered amps
• improvisation jam sessions, performances, improv games and systems with any audio input
• field recordings from the local area and from the building itself
• skill sharing by participants on any aspect of music & sound

More details here soon but contact us early if you are interested.

We're back at the fantastic and shiny new Eureka v2 at the Wirral (no, that's not Halifax) for the whole of half term week 29 May - 4 June with the terrifying Acousatron installation. Come and make some noise prod some Oobleck, get your nose tested and your hands bass-buzzed and then make some more noise. Tell your friendsm bring your family, see you there- follow the BOOOM!
