That sign-language makes it possible to create new types of poetry? What would the result be if we mix it with the music you know?<\/p>\n<p>We are two students, one in music and one in linguistics. Together, over the summer, we constructed a project involving people from diverse backgrounds and life paths: Deaf, hard of hearing, hearing, CODA, sign-language speakers or not, musicians. Together we set off to invent musical concepts that are enjoyable to all, and leave no one behind.<\/p>\n<p>Icelandic Sign-Language (\u00cdTM) will take the center stage in this program: instead of translating lyrics originating from hearing artists, we composed music starting from sign-language works.<\/p>\n<p>Discover music that is seen and felt, just as much as heard; in which voice and hands collaborate to create meaning and bring people together; discover how sign language and vocal language can complete one another and how someone else\u2019s experience can enrich your own.<\/p>\n<p>Come and take part in a unique experiment to try and explore new ways music can be made and enjoyed.<\/p>\n<p>OBS &#8211; children under 12 years have free entry.
