History

Soundtracks in education

How can sound art be used constructively in science teaching, and how can the artistic processes elevate public education by adding more creative and innovative thinking?

​

45 school students from Limfjordsskolen went to a workshop with sound artist Alex Mørch where they built sound installations with motors, contact microphones and transducers that examined the natural frequency of objects in their surroundings.
