Event Details
In honor of our Cyberpunk exhibition closing April 12, we welcome filmmaker and educator Andrew Kim to the Shirley Temple Education Studio, where he shows us how to build our very own Atari Punk Console—a simple sound synthesizer, perfect for generating gritty sci-fi textures.
In the second half of the workshop, we create and record a cyberpunk-inspired film score using a variety of synthesizers, both analog and digital.
Each participant receives a synthesizer kit to take home. This workshop welcomes participants ages 15 and up.
