Update October 16, 2022: Artist and exhibitors update.
The Bob Moog foundation will present at the Synthplex show, they wrote: At Synthplex, we’re expanding Dr. Bob’s SoundSchool. On Friday, October 28, we’re sharing two sessions of Dr. Bob’s SoundSchool with Los Angeles County students.
The experiential learning at Synthplex 2022 marks an expansion for our work sharing the science of sound: we are opening up Dr. Bob’s SoundSchool experiences beyond second-graders, to middle- and high-school students.
And this lucky group of students will not only get to experience the science of sound, but the science of synthesis as well.
