Creating Music From Science Ideas
This will be a practical workshop about turning science ideas into music compositions led by composer-educator, Karlin Love, violinist-educator Suzy Turner, and retired physics teacher, Jason Dicker. It is aimed at upper primary through secondary students, but will work fine for adults and thoughtful younger students. We’ll explore how to turn ideas into sound, and…
