Activity Description:
The Zero Instrument Activity aims to engage participants with their own bodies and refocus their definition of producing sound. We often forget, amidst the myriad of instruments in existence, that the single instrument we are all born with is our body. Making it the first instrument; instrument 0. This workshop invites participants on a cognitive journey to reimagine their bodies as sound producing instruments and encourages them to explore the extent and limits of the body by shedding their preconceived notions of what sound and body are. Participants will take a dive into producing melodic tunes and creative percussive beats together, encouraging them to not only interact with their bodies in a renewed way, but also to understand those around them through sound.
