Making Multichannel Music w/ Dorothy Carlos
@ Elastic Arts
3429 W Diversey Ave, #208, Chicago, IL 60647
Opening Wednesday, May 8th, at 7:30PM
In conjunction with Experimental Sound Studio and the CLEAT Series we continue our series of artist-led introduction workshops exploring spatial audio.
The workshops are approximately 2 hours and will begin with a demonstration and discussion of each individual artist’s approach to multichannel sound. In the second half of the workshops, participants will have an opportunity to experiment with multichannel sound techniques on the 16-channel CLEAT system installed at Elastic.
No prior experience with multichannel sound necessary! You will need to bring your own laptop to actively participate in the second half of each workshop, however you are also welcome to simply listen and observe without a laptop.
The workshops are FREE but space is limited. Come to one, or come to all! Following this round of four workshops we will start planning future CLEAT workshop series in Fall 2024, Spring 2025, and Fall 2025.
Dorothy says “Feel free to bring an instrument. This workshop will cater to instrumentalists who are seeking to spatialize the sound of their instrument live during a performance.”
