Bending Instruments (2019-20)
Marianthi Papalexandri-Alexandri and Trevor Pinch
College of Arts and Sciences
Trevor Pinch and Marianthi Papalexandri-Alexandri were awarded a grant to develop a class in which students create an instrument and use it to explore aspects of sound and performance. As the move to remote learning during the pandemic limited access to materials and workshop tools, Pinch & Papalexandri-Alexandri asked students to be creative and use their own living spaces and materials they had on hand to complete the assignment.
