Rockhal

SCIENTISTS MEET MUSICIANS is the networking event of the SCIENCE MEETS MUSIC Event, which takes place at the Rockhal on May 1st, and which is the official launch event of the Esch2022 project: “The Sound of Data – Science meets Music, by FNR, Rockhal, University of Luxembourg and LIST.

The networking event is the only part of the event where you need to reserve a ticket beforehand.
Afterwards, you can have fun at the science and music fair for families, kids and adults in the Rockhal Floor, and in the Rockhal Club you can meet Cyborg-Artist Neil Harbisson, who can hear colours thanks to an antenna that is permanently implanted into his skull, and listen to his futuristic keynote talk. Together with Pol Lombarte, Neil Harbisson will use its cyborg organ to create “cardio-sonochromatic” portraits. A performance that will transpose the heartbeats of the audience into colour and music. You will also be able to listen to the Lecture Performance of Dr. Valery Vermeulen, about data sonification under the headline: Music, (deep) space and black holes.
And you can join a workshop from Ableton, listen to a panel of experts from science and music about sonification – creative ways for scientists, artists and musicians to work with data..
