DMLab North-West: Exploring accessible music technology

Date: Tuesday 10 December

Free entry – just drop in!

DMLab is a space for Disabled and Non-Disabled musicians, technologists, and makers to exchange practices and explore new accessible instruments.

As this is the final session of the year, we will bring a variety of devices and controllers (some familiar and some new), so we can get hands-on for a year-end jam. Please bring along anything you would like to play!

The event will also include opportunities for networking and music making and testing a selection of instruments from Drake Music’s Accessible Musical Instrument Collection. Have a music or accessibility-based project you’d like to present? Contact us at dmlabnw@drakemusic.org to get involved!
