Design Your Own Sonic Aesthetic: A Sound Exploration Workshop
What if you could become your own algorithm?
What if you could curate soundscapes that actually support your emotional landscape and creative work?
This August, join electronic musician, producer, and theremin artist Clara Venice at the Pretty Decent Internet Café for an interactive workshop where you'll learn how to identify your unique sonic aesthetic and use it as a tool for focus, relaxation, and intentional living.
Are you drawn to sparkly, ethereal high frequencies? Deep, massage-like bass tones? The warm middle range where human voices live? Each preference reveals something fascinating about what you're seeking when you listen to music.
Why Your Sonic Aesthetic Matters
Mental Health Support: Using sounds that align with your aesthetic is like designing the perfect morning routine, but for your ears.
Reduce Overstimulation: Understanding your sonic preferences helps you curate a sonic environment that energizes or relaxes you without overwhelming your nervous system.
Creative Business & Branding: Just like you choose fonts and colors intentionally, once you understand your sonic aesthetic you can choose sounds that represent and communicate your creative edge.
Playlist Hygiene: Curate your sound environment like you'd organize your closet, keeping what serves you and clearing what doesn't.
