Unprecious Instrument (listening, composing, performing)

Rob will perform a short improvisation using instruments created during a workshop with Ruskin BFA and MFA students, before describing a selection of related sound art projects. Framed through listening, composing, performing, the presentation outlines a creative process in which playful experimentation becomes the work itself.
