Listen "What can technology do for us?"
Episode Synopsis
What’s the role of technology in music? Does it enhance creativity, and can it be a hindrance? YolanDa Brown is joined by LPO cellist Elisabeth Wiklander and session drummer Dav Shiel, who is Project Manager and Associate Musician at Drake Music - a charity that helps disabled people reach their musical potential through the use of assistive technology. From using an iPad to compose, to an amplified orchestral concert on a motorway overpass, to teaching on Zoom, and using eye gaze technology to control instruments, Dav and Elisabeth discuss the ins and outs of how technology and music intersect. Plus, Dav explains how sound beams can make music making endlessly accessible… Produced by Tandem Productions for the London Philharmonic Orchestra#OffstagePodTwitter: @LPOrchestraInstagram: @londonphilharmonicorchestraFacebook: @londonphilharmonicorchestra Hosted on Acast.
