Final Concert on Thursday 24 August 5 pm

In the final presentation of the workshop everyone is participating in the "meta-orchestra". All individual systems of the players are networked, so that people can use each other's sounds and performance information (captured by sensors on the instruments and in the space). The work presented is a structured improvisation, organised in sections. Each section has a number of people performing in the foreground, while in the background other activities may be going on. The focus of activity is moving through the spaces; the audience is invited to follow their ears and eyes.
