Jeff Morton (Ottawa)
June 1-4, 2014 at Saskatoon’s Kiwanis Park
All The Horses is a funny kind of electronic musical instrument that you can play. It is made out of “lost” electronic toys that have been altered. Instead of the usual classical music or lullaby sounds they used to make, the toys have been electronically modified to produce strange new frequencies and rhythms.
The purpose of this community partnership is to provide a gallery style experience in a non-traditional setting, and to encourage inquiry-based learning through creative sound exploration.
