This workshop is a recording session where the participants are encouraged to perform custom electronic instruments as a live collaboration to produce a long format recording for the ATRL archives.

The intention is to produce a substantial recording of the participants building their own collaborative soundscape using provided electronic instruments, each participating in the traditional minimal participation sense of ‘one temporal sound’ each, to encourage active participation and instil a democratic platform of interdependent instruments.

The recording will be distributed as CDs among the artists and archived as the first in a series of recorded performances, with the intention of evolving in time to create a series of collaborative works. This workshop will require participation. New custom musical software instruments will be given to participants which they can use. A laptop will be required. A recording of the finished work will be available to all.
