Bleep Introduction

From September 9 to 14, METAKNOTEN e.V. is organizing the CIRCUIT-CONTROL Festival for creative use of the soldering iron at Roter Baum e.V. in Dresden-Pieschen. Building electronic instruments, creating kinetic sculptures or simply learning how to solder? No problem! At the CIRCUIT-CONTROL Festival, anyone interested can take part in one of the many workshops and courses or simply watch and be inspired. The festival ends with a concert where workshop participants, local and international guests perform an audiovisual concert with their self-made instruments and devices.

For one week, Roter Baum e.V. will be a temporary makerspace and networking venue for hobbyists, professionals and artists from the fields of audio, video and media art. Electronic instruments will be built, kinetic sculptures designed and light art processes developed. A wide range of workshops, courses and lectures with guests from the local and international scene impart new knowledge to advanced and beginners alike. The festival offers space to realize your own projects together with like-minded people or to experiment with the equipment on display.

The CIRCUIT-CONTROL Festival 2024 is supported by the Kulturstiftung des Freistaates Sachsen, the Amt für Kultur und Denkmalschutz, the Wau Holland Stiftung and the Klippel Stiftung.

Organizer:

Metaknoten e.V. – A network collective of international artists, musicians, programmers, engineers, organizers and free spirits founded in Dresden in 2021.
