Trashkestra
Jimi Tenor has a project for students called Trashkestra. Students start the workshop at junk shop or recycling center and look for material that would be suitable for DIY instruments. For example tubes, electronics, metal sheets, pipes, bricks, glass bowls etc etc. Then at the school/university the students build for 3-4 days instruments out of this material. Then on the 5th day there is a concert where students play these instruments. So far this workshop has been done in Tallin with Architecture students and in Bergen at Ekko festival. The workshop has been a big success. Trashestra project is suitable for university students.
