Workshop in Jarandilla de la Vera

Cartography and remixing of local music

The training workshop held during the second half of October 2021 in one face-to-face and two virtual sessions. The workshop was framed as an activity within the Jornada of presentation of the publication Pensar y hacer en el medio rural. Cultural practices in context and preparation of the IV Forum Culture and Ruralities.

Within the workshop, two working groups were formed to create two sound projects:

sound projects

A sound project started from the idea of the kitchen space as a place where traditional sounds coexist with more modern ones. Sounds were recorded from various objects and artifacts in the kitchen to create the rhythm section of a culinary orchestra that you can conduct. Sound project created by Ricardo Bella, Nabil, Carmen, Martín Gómez-Ullate and Victor del Arco.

The other project developed by the participants had as its starting point the space of the school playground as a place where music and play traditionally dialogued. In this space we worked to remix sounds of the playground with loops selected from traditional songs recorded by some of the people who formed the working group. Sound project created by Angélica Galán, Luis Martínez, David Prieto, Aurora Pérez, Violeta Salvador and Encarna.
