During this workshop students from the RMC (Rhythmic Music Conservatory) and ITU (IT University of Copenhagen) will collaborate on creating interactive sound and light spaces. They will work with sound and light design, the Kinect sensor and creative coding (in Processing).

The workshop is structured around an existing installation framework made in collaboration between art duo Foo/Skou (Louise Foo/Martha Skou) and AIR LAB during the development of the Foo/Skou installation Disharmony of Spheres.

Participants will work in cross-disciplinary teams with both ITU and RMC students. This way the teams will both have sound design, and coding skills.

Requirements for participating is either being an RMC student on the course (Musical expressions for new interfaces), or an ITU students with basic coding skills. The workshop can host 7 RMC students and 14 ITU students.
