mathandrhythm@gmail.comJoin us for an interactive exploration of how mathematics can inspire rhythm and music! Dive into Konnakol, India's ancient rhythm language, which requires no instruments, simply your voice. And learn about the creative process behind our collaboration ‘Rhythms of fractals and collective movement’, in which we are using mathematical research to create exciting new rhythms. The rhythms we explore will feature in a brand-new musical composition, to be performed at the Bloomsbury Theatre at 6pm on Saturday 16th May.
The workshop assumes no previous musical knowledge and is suitable for all levels. Participation is free of charge, but spaces are limited.
