A Touch of Modular Synthesis with David Castellani
To understand an artist like David Castellani, it’s essential to gain insight into his universe of modular synthesis. Living and breathing all things modular, his processes and performances stand out in today’s electronic music world. His passion and curiosity for learning, creativity, and technological development have led him to create his own sequencer module and challenge conventional approaches to using modular synthesis both in live settings and in the studio.
Translating his passion for modular synthesis into a workshop at ADE Lab, David Castellani will provide you with the opportunity to learn all about the Eurorack and how to integrate even a small amount of modular synthesis into your creative process at home or translate your productions into a live performance on stage. Come curious and eager to learn as David Castellani guides you through an hour and a half of electronic exploration.
Please note: This session is designed as a hands-on workshop with limited capacity to enhance creativity and collaboration. Sign-up forms will be available at the registration desk at Het Groene Paleis (Nes, 42) on the day of the event. Sign-ups open at 12:00 and will be on a first-come, first-served basis until all spots are filled.
You need a valid ADE Pro, Lab or Lab Day Pass to be able to attend the session!
