Synth East: Tape Loop Workshop with BeepBoop Electronics

Where: Electronic Sound, Capitol House, 4-6 Heigham Street, NR2 4TE

When: 1pm-3pm

Learn how to make your own tape loops and get started experimenting with tape music. We will explore splicing techniques and modifying cassette cases to create longer loops.

In the ramshackle style of the BBC Radiophonic workshop we will try out recording our own tape compositions using a DIY set up of contact mics, redundant dusty old tape machines and rubbish including a lamp shade….Delia Derbyshire – Blue veils and golden sandsTogether we will imagine and create new sonic landscapes.

There will be loads of time to ask any questions on the day.  All equipment provided but feel free to bring your own metal lamp shade, sandwiches and thermos of tea. At the end of the workshop you can take your tape loops home as well as a tape loop starter kit!
