Ever wanted to go beyond electronic music? Want to discover the technologies and sciences behind artistic expression? The Music & Technology Corner of BEM17 puts together performers, technicians, music start-ups and academics for an all-day gathering that transcends the borders between creative practice, scientific understanding and technical expertise.
Expect mind-blowing technical inductions & workshops, a repair café / circuit bending hub to repair or transform your own machines, a cycle of talks about sciences applied to electronic music, a fair for innovative music start-ups and an all-day series of concerts presenting artists working with technologies.
