PLAYING WITH FEEDBACK: A SOUND-BUILDING WORKSHOP WITH NIKOLA H. MOUNOUD

‘Playing with Feedback: A sound-building workshop’ is open to sound practitioners, both beginners and advanced players, interested in the field of electronic music, especially computer music. With the guidance from Nikola H. Mounoud, a Hanoi-based Swiss sound artist, participants will explore the modular capacity of Cycling74’s software MAX/MSP to create feedback loops – a process where an audio signal is sent from an input to an output and then back into itself.

This approach enables participants to use a laptop as a real time instrument, as well as to build a simple and efficient patch in order to control and perform live feedback loops (or any loops longer than 1ms). This instrument can easily fit to almost any style and genre in order to produce new and personalized sounds.
