About this Event

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. This week we feature Sam Clapp, a musician, filmmaker, and arts worker living in Chicago. In this session, he will present his 'Bliss Point' series of short films as a means to ponder the creative possibilities of the 16.1 CLEAT sound system for audiovisual projects. 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!
