workshops
In addition to my own work, I also lead workshops and courses on topics related to electronic music, instrument making, field recording, etc.
Here are some of my past workshops to view.
In case of interest
feel free to contact me. There are many topics on which I can conduct workshops. We will tailor the workshop to fit the participants, time, environment and topic.
Oscillator making (2021)
Oscillator - the basic building block of synthesizers and electronic music in general.
Together we learned how the oscillator works and built a cheap and readily available solderless version.
For participants without any previous experience!

Kontaktní mikrofony & field recording - Lofofora lom (2024)
A contact microphone is essential equipment for every "bastler", sound engineer, musician and in fact everyone. A contact microphone to every family! Each participant made a microphone under my supervision. For participants without any previous experience!
Together we then walked around the flooded quarry and, under my guidance, penetrated into the hidden world of sounds spreading through matter, and from this fascination each participant recorded few short sounds. I then created a short improvised performance from these sounds.

Synthesizer making - The Academy of Fine Arts, Prague (2024)
Let's make an analog synth from scratch!
Electroacoustic music has its foundations inextricably linked to tinkering. A huge part of the audio technology that exists today, as well as the approaches to it, was created in the workshop of some passionate madwoman or madman, in which tons of burnt LEDs, wires and dead batteries are lying on the ground. Together we will learn how to discharge these batteries in style and how to burn the LED's, as well as how to avoid burning.
For participants without any previous experience!
The workshop consisted of:
- a short theoretical introduction to the history of electroacoustic music and its connection with the experimental construction of analog circuits
- introduction to electricity, circuits, electronics for complete beginners
- and especially how to build your own simple analog synthesizer, together with the knowledge of how it works and how to proceed further
- we ended it with a joint jam on our noise machines
