We are a grassroots, DIY collective experimenting with sound & sound making electronics in an informal sharing and learning environment. Beginners with no experience but an interest are especially welcomed.
We primarily run make-and-do sessions – think knit & natter but with circuits.
Meetings are on the first Saturday of the month at Fuse Art Space. https://bradfordsoundwomen.wordpress.com/
A place to talk about how you use sound as art/performance. Or to ask questions so that you can start. A resource sharing opportunity; to read, watch films together, and listen. We can organise field trips, like doing location recording around Bradford District.
We meet every third Wednesday of the month at Fuse Art Space. https://bradfordsoundartists.org.uk/
