Overview

Biodegradable Sound is a workshop series which explores concepts of biodegradability as they apply to music, instrument making, and the sonic arts. In Vol. 1, participants will learn how to craft and etch their own biodegradable “vinyl” records (made of seaweed, gelatin, and various natural pigments). Participants will not only create their own bioplastic records, they will also etch sounds of their choosing onto the biomaterials using a record etcher provided at the workshop.

1. Introductions

2. Concept for Biodegradable Sound

3. What are bioplastics?

4. Making the records

5. Preparing the audio

6. Etching the record

7. Listening + Discussion

BYOC - Bring your own crap

Participants are welcomed and encouraged to bring their own biodegradable materials that they are interested in experimenting with/adding to their bio-vinyl- either for design purposes, structural integrity, or general intrigue. Some materials to consider are: fruits (including skins and pits), spices, natural fibers, and leaves/foliage. A range of materials will be made available to participants for experimentation including turmeric, red cabbage, spirulina, and coffee grounds.
