Between 2017 and 2019, the first 2 years of the Sanjomix project, the 5th grade students created musical life stories and mixed them into group collage landscapes. In them, the chosen songs were contextualized with family experiences, reflecting the diverse cultural backgrounds of the students and their families in the classroom. You can explore this emotional music archive at play.antropoloops
In April 2017 the 5th grade students participated in the MUAC showing the work they had done on their musical life stories to other groups of students from other schools.
It was very exciting to see how they told it and how the audience responded to activate the soundscapes by connecting with each other. We ended up making a big chain to play some of the stories on the panels with the Makey Makey.
The soundscapes made by the 5th grade students in the 2017-18 academic year were prepared to be exhibited during the Big Bang festival in Seville, a European network of music festivals for children. Our students, already in 6th grade, visited the exhibition to present it to the families who visited it on the opening day.
After finishing the Sanjomix project, we thought it would be nice to share the stories of its students and the dynamics we had developed, so that they could serve as inspiration for other schools. With the support of the PLANEA network, we generated a didactic resource and adapted the panels so that they could be sent by mail, with instructions for use :)
The panels were sent to the following schools:
With the Centro Riojano De Innovación Educativa, we also traveled :) and gave an in-person training workshop to teachers who then adapted the idea to their contexts in very different ways: see workshop in La Rioja
Back from their various trips, the panels were exhibited in the neighborhood as part of the remix and encounter day that we organized together with Factoría Cultural at Plaza Playa de Isla Canela
After their many trips, the panels returned to the entrance hall of CEIP San José Obrero, where the students continue to listen to them at recess and the families who come to enroll their children... from Sanjomix to the entire galaxy
