Community Sound Creation

Hands-on workshop with BitLab and XRCB

BitLab and XRCB are hosting a workshop on Thursday, May 8 at the Canòdrom focused on sound creation as a tool for collective communication and expression. With over 15 years of experience in sound production for film, BitLab offers a creative and participatory approach to sound design as a narrative language. The workshop is part of the training program promoted by the Xarxa de Ràdios Comunitàries de Barcelona (XRCB) and is open to everyone, regardless of technical background.

Through a hands-on methodology, participants will explore audiovisual techniques to build stories that don’t rely on images: recording voiceovers, manipulating sound, discovering open sound archives like Freesound, and editing audio using Audacity. The session also includes a space for collective reflection on the symbolic power of sound to represent social realities, shape identities, and transform our surroundings from a community and critical perspective. Participants must bring a laptop.

📍Thursday, May 8 | Canòdrom – Digital and Democratic Innovation Hub
🕕 From 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM
