Sonic Alchemy: Designing Sounds from Field Recordings

Von 66.97 € /Std

In this class, we’ll start by exploring your surroundings through field recording and use them as material for composition. Then we’ll bring those recordings into a digital audio environment and process them using experimental sound design techniques. We will explore the potential of sound together and learn how to listen for opportunities. By the end, you’ll have your own custom sound palette and the skills to create unique atmospheres that are unique to you. We will create textures, atmospheric sounds, instrument racks, and even drum racks!

Über mich

I am a multidisciplinary shapeshifter exploring the potential of sound, video, and performance. My work is experimental, navigating the space between reality and imagination to explore identity, perception, and vulnerability through technology. As a musician, I compose, design sound, and improvise vocally; as a visual artist, I craft abstract video, projection-based installations, and text-based art. I create simulations and machines to reveal hidden, overlooked, and unexplored realities and relations. My artist persona, duality, reflects my manifesto: embracing both nature and technology as forces of true innovation. My work has been guided by personal experiences, philosophy, metaphysics, feminism, hybrid human-machine relationships, deep listening, traditional Turkish singing, mindfulness, and lucid dreaming.

I love learning as much as I love teaching! If you are looking for an alternative, experimental, friendly teacher I am here for you!

-Advanced Rhythm
-Music Production / Music Software (Sibelius, Logic)
I am open to any combination of the above subjects :-)

I always try to adapt to each student, his/her level and most importantly his/her needs. We can take the long road of music theory or focus on the project you are working on now, in a way that can help you now.

I can teach in English and German and the lesson can be at my place, your place, or via webcam.

Hi my name is Anne.

I play the violin and the viola and I have studied at the conservatory at ArtEZ Jazz & Pop.

During my studies I started to build by violin teacher practice. Apart from my private students I taught at the music school "Muziekdorp" in Wijchen and coached a band of high school students for a year.
Next to teaching I play concerts with the "Metropole Academy", I have a string quartet "The Four Frogs in te Woods", and I'm playing in a Folk string duo.

Students of all ages and categories are welcome in my lesson.
Classical, Folk, Rock, Pop, Jazz, and free improvisation are some of the genres you can discover in our lessons.
I did a Teacher Training with the American Violinist Mark O'Connor and finished this training with a diploma. His method is a very beautiful and comprehensive way to learn the variety of the violinistic possibilities.

We will play a lot of music together.
Starting with a correct violin posture you will develop a brought variety of techniques to find your own style.

Being able to play an instrument is an enrichment for everyone!

I would be happy to meet you.

I offer personal harmonica lessons in a variety of genres.
The content is entirely based on your interests and is very much oriented towards actual playing and improvising.
With me you can learn everything you need for the blues harp. From the first notes, replaying your favorite songs and special techniques to fluid improvisation and playing together with other musicians.
I'm also happy to convey a solid understanding of the music theory behind the harmonica, but if you don't feel like learning theory, that's no problem for me.
I welcome adults and young people over 12 years of age.
