Creating our own Sound Workshop
ECHO is launching a new series of interactive online workshops as part of the ECHO Happiness Hub, focusing on wellbeing, creativity, learning and self-care.
Each 30 minute session will be led by a creative professional encouraging you and your families to enjoy a new experience – join to take part for some relaxation and to learn skills in origami making, drawing and the art of listening and sound!
These workshops are hosted in partnership with our friends at the Centre for Medical Engineering at King’s College London and later in the series we will be joined by some scientists to hear about their work.
All workshops will be streamed live on ECHO’s Facebook and YouTube, so you will not need to switch on your own camera at any time. You are welcome to interact during live sessions by using the chat feature to write any questions or feedback. All sessions will be available to watch any time after the livestream.
Event dates: 19 Jan, 26 Jan, 2 Feb, 9 Feb, 16 Feb, 23 Feb, 2 March, 9 March, 16 March, 23 March, 30 March, 6 April 2021
Time: 2.00-2.30pm
Where: Live and on catch-up on Facebook and YouTube
Workshop 12: Creating our own Sounds with Anna
Anna invites you to explore the sounds in your surroundings and to master the art of listening. Anna is a freelance broadcast journalist and podcaster and hosts workshops to share her love of sound. Close your eyes and sit back for a second. What noises can you hear? We’ll get out of our chairs for the final workshop! We’ll hunt in our surroundings for things that make different kinds of sound, bring them together, and make some noise.
Materials required? anything in your immediate surrounding that you can use to make a noise.
