Composer and live coder Thor Magnusson and writer Bergsveinn Birgisson hold a three day workshop on writing and sound, delving into diverse writing practices, emphasising the intersection of sound and writing. The workshop aims to be highly interdisciplinary, where we apply knowledge from experimental and explorative processes in thinking about sound, writing sound, about composing instruments, writing algorithms, speaking notes and drawing movement in time.

The workshop starts in the morning with a meeting and discussion about the day’s topic. We form collaborating groups through on topics presented and performed in the afternoon. After the presentations we discuss and reflect upon our experience of the day. On Sunday the groups will present their final projects in a public event.
