These workshops are part of the "Initiation" program designed by GMEM to enable school audiences to explore the vast field of creative music (contemporary, experimental, electroacoustic or electronic).
The program is divided into several phases over the course of a school year, with the aim of providing students with keys to listening and understanding, as well as awakening their artistic sensibilities.
The program is adapted to the needs of each school and the approach of each teaching team. The gmem offers students a two-hour workshop, directly in their schools, to discover the production methods involved in musical creation.
Through improvisation and the manipulation of sound objects, participants explore the different worlds of electroacoustic, electronic and experimental music. Using concrete and synthetic sounds, and the misuse of instruments, students are introduced to collective musical creation, and made aware of the importance of listening through electroacoustic technologies (sound transformation in particular).

Charles Bascou is a composer, computer music designer and researcher, living in Marseille since 2004.
