ARTIST TALK
TECHNE: A Creative and Educational Model Emphasizing Difference
Wednesday February 19th at 5pm
Grant Recital Hall, Brown University
105 Benevolent Street, Providence RI
TECHNE is an arts education organization offering modular workshops that combine sound, technology and improvisation. Our workshops incorporate organic, analog and digital realms as tools for expression and provide opportunities for students to listen, dialog, share and vocalize. An important aspect of TECHNE is addressing gender imbalance within electronic music fields by introducing young women to technology and alternative ideologies of music making.
Join TECHNE’s co-founders, electronic musicians Bonnie Jones and Suzanne Thorpe, for a discussion of how their creative careers have influenced and instigated their work in education and arts organizing. Thorpe and Jones will examine the criteria of musical affiliation, and discuss the implementation of alternative modeling through their educational outreach programs.
