Vinyl Cutting Workshop

28–30 Nov 2024
Vinyl Cutting Workshop

Are you working with sound art or experimental music and would you like to experiment with the record medium? Then you now have the chance to take part in a 3-day workshop with composer Jonas Olesen, where we cut sound in CDs, plastic, professional laquer discs, etc.
Together we experiment with which materials soundwise and visually suit the sound being cut. At the start of the workshop, we briefly review the historical development of the vinyl format and the various techniques that can be used. Please note that we work with lo-fi equipment. The focus is on the artistic work with the medium, rather than purely technical.

Jonas Olesen works as a composer with electronic music, sound and installation art. He runs the record company BIN and is a co-founder of the association Institut for Dansk Lydarkæologi.

Send a short motivation incl. introduction of yourself and a description of which sounds you want to bring no later than October 27th to terraform.island@gmail.com
