‘All the sounds are out there … we just need to find them’
Hackoustic is a hacking group dedicated to exploring acoustics and instrument building. We meet on the second and last Sundays of every month at the London Hackspace to experiment with sound and try to build whatever sound making machines we can imagine. Sometimes we invite speakers who come and talk about their projects or tell us about a subject that might be of helpful in our explorations. The emphasis is definitely on experimenting and having fun, although many of our members are serious musicians/sound-artists/entrepreneurs.
We are also keen on evangelising to the wider world about the joys of hacking and experimenting with sound, as well as promoting our members projects. We have appeared at Tate Modern, the V&A, Cafe Oto, the Elephant and Castle Maker Faire and more in order to do just that.
