Every morning from 10am to 1pm there will be a workshop dealing with the specific theme of the day. Anybody interested in having a more intimate knowledge on the specific issues and is willing to work with the people invoved, please come to the workshops.

Workshop on Social Dissonance with Mattin

To improvise is to exercise one’s freedom of expression through an instrument. But once you take away the instrument and become the instrument yourself, you begin to realise how instrumentalised you are and how you are embedded in many processes of mediation—economic, social, linguistic, and so on. The freedom that you thought you were expressing is inevitably unveiled as at best problematic, at worst a pernicious illusion. The Social Dissonance score attempts to engineer such moments of disillusion, in order to bring these deeper dissonances into the foreground and make them a disconcerting part of the concert.
