A documentary about a workshop, made by a film workshop active in the house at the same time.

My workshop was two days of Musical Instrument Building + a concert, as part of the Soundplay (Dzwiękowiska) project in Centrum Sztuki Współczesnej Łaźnia Centre For Contemporary Art in scope of the Art+Science Meeting project, Gdańsk, poland, 2013.

Here are 47 pictures of tools, lecture and instruments made and played in the workshop, © by Johannes Bergmark and Łaźnia, from the Johannes Bergmark flickr set (19 pictures from the Dzwiękowiska FB page also incorporated here).
Last, this is a sneak preview of the

Dzwiękowiska / Soundplay book + dvd

published by Centrum Sztuki Współczesnej Łaźnia Centre For Contemporary Art in Gdańsk, to be ordered here – or rather here! for only 28,00 zł (PLN, ≈ 59 SEK / 7 € / $ 9 US).

It's bilingual PL/EN. The flickr show is for copyright reasons only a glimpse through the pages, not readable, to give an impression. The text is now free and I will publish it on my web site soon.

My piece is called Kilka niepospolitych okazów ze składzika akustyki instrumentów muzycznych / Some Unusual Examples from the Backyards of Musical Instrument Acoustics.
