DMLab North-West: Accessible Music-making in Manchester
An ongoing space for Disabled and Non-Disabled musicians & technologists to explore accessible music-making. All experience levels welcome!
DMLab Northwest is back! We’re kicking off a new series of workshops with another session of tinkering, collaboration, and hands-on prototyping in Manchester Hackspace
Event details:
6pm to 8:30pm
Tuesday 18 August
Manchester Hackspace, Pollard Street East, Manchester, M40 7FS
Register now on Eventbrite, or simply drop in on the night!
What to expect
We’ll be bringing along a range of accessible instruments and technologies to play with. This first session will be an open space for sharing and experimentation. Anyone is welcome to bring along their own things to tinker with, or start new projects in the session.
Who is it for?
These sessions are open to any level of experience, musicians and non-musicians, Disabled and Non-Disabled people–come down and say hello!
We’d especially love Disabled musicians (and wannabe musicians) to join us and bring the barriers they’d like help tackling.
First time at DMLab North-West?
No problem! New members are always welcome. Please drop us an email at dmlabnw@drakemusic.org to register.
What’s provided?
We will provide Arduinos, ESP32s, sensors, wires, and as usual, plenty of biscuits. You are welcome to bring a laptop and any other bits.
Access information:
The entrance to Hackspace has a small step, with a ramp to make this accessible. The rest of the building has level access or a ramp, and there is an accessible toilet space. Please let us know of any specific access requirements by emailing info@drakemusic.org.
