New Museum First Saturdays for Families: Tarek Atoui: Electro-Acoustic Music
May 1 2010
Join us for an electro-acoustic music and movement workshop. Tarek Atoui is an electro-acoustic musician who initiates multidisciplinary interventions using new software, and specializes in transforming computer tools such as Wii controllers and body sensors to generate unique music. In collaboration with the artist, families will have the opportunity to participate in a movement and sound workshop, exploring how innovations in technology may be used to inspire art-making (and vice versa).
New Museum First Saturdays for Families are free of charge. This program is designed and recommended for families with children four to fifteen years old, and includes free New Museum admission for up to two adults per family. Children under eighteen are always admitted free. No preregistration is required. Tickets are given out on a first-come, first-served basis.
