Schiettecatte, and will result in an AudioCubes performance by the

workshop participants during /Test_Lab: Audio_Objects/. *

The first day of the workshop will be spent learning how to set up the

AudioCubes for either control or audio, interfacing them with existing

software, and learning how to incorporate the tactile user interface

into the participant's repertoire.During the second day, the workshop

participants will craft the framework for a new sound piece. On the

third day they will rehearse the piece, work out bugs, develop a

presentation, and perform during /Test_Lab: Audio_Objects/ (also

featuring Gijs Gieskes, Michel Waisvisz, Edwin van der Heijden, Brigit

Lichtenegger and Annabeth Robinson (as AngryBeth Shortbread)).
