The MusicMakers Hacklab will celebrate its 5th year this January 2017 at CTM Festival! Led by Peter Kirn (DCM) and co-host Byrke Lou, this collaborative, improvisatory, experimental environment facilitates working together to conceive and realise new ideas in a week of intensive activity. An open call for this year's "Emotional Invention" theme is out now, with a deadline of 30 November.
