The Music Education Lab and the Music, Cognitive Sciences and Community Lab of the Department of Music Studies, NKUA, are honoured to host Dimitra Trypani, Associate Professor in the Department of Music Studies at the Ionian University, for a workshop entitled From Ear to Body – Acoustic Reboot Method, on Thursday 30 May 2024, 18:00-21:00, in Room 917 of the School of Philosophy.

Dimitra Trypani's “From Ear to Body” Acoustic Reboot Method offers a comprehensive set of tools and techniques aimed at renewing the auditory and rhythmic perception of musicians, actors, dancers, teachers, students at all educational levels and other professionals working with groups. It also aims to introduce creative ways of incorporating sound and rhythm into interdisciplinary educational, social and artistic activities. Rather than relying solely on familiar musical notation, its exercises connect hearing with the body, literally embodying sound so that it can be decoded naturally and meaningfully through the carefully structured use of the voice, asymmetric rhythms, polyphony, polyrhythm and body percussion.

The workshop is intended for undergraduate and postgraduate students of the Department of Music Studies.
