Instrument builder and performer Wukir Suryadi (of Senyawa) talks about his work, drawing inspiration for instruments that combine Javanese tradition and contemporary invention.

He will provide insights into his unique construction methods, interweaving acoustic and electronic approaches, a discipline he shares with our Hacklab participants this week. He will also discuss his instrument builder collaboration, which drew together visual artists and musicians across Indonesia and Australia, curated by Kristi Monfries and Joel Stern.
