xxxxx-workshops: [in]tolerance presented a series of constructivist workshops specially programmed for CTM.08, emphasising making and connection within the field of the existent. Workshops have been led by international, field-expert practitioners, extending over realms of environmental code, noise, signal transmission, reception, and electromysticism. The workshops utilised household materials and chemistry, readily-available electronics components, free software and the GNU toolbase.

Over the course of five days, participants had the opportunity to construct a set of various electronic audiovisual artifacts (being either code or hardware) with which a final presentation/performance was made. In learning how to create complex sound and image generators from the most basic elements, the participants explored liminal electronic experiences and intriguing phenomena where carefully-engineered borders and parameters are twisted and transgressed, producing unexpected results in performance.

The series took inspiration from and continues the development of the (semi)weekly xxxxx-workshops held at the Pickled Feet space in Berlin.
