About

We invite young sound explorers and future composers to take part in a unique workshop where hammers, drills, steel pipes, and concrete slabs will be transformed into real musical instruments!

This is not an ordinary music workshop – it is an experiment at the intersection of music, technology, and unrestricted creativity. Participants will create their own sound collage inspired by the city, construction sites, and the everyday materials that surround us.

During the workshop, children will discover the sonic potential of tools that are usually associated with work rather than music. They will record these intriguing sounds, combine them, and collaboratively create a sound piece that will be professionally recorded at the end of the session.

Participants will leave not only with a new creative experience, but also with the understanding that technology and engineering can be imaginative and expressive, not just practical.

Led by Nikodem Paśnicki

About the instructor

Nikodem Paśnicki is a musician and animator. Sound plays a central role in his life, but his interest in visual art emerged first: at the age of just a few years old, he painted a child’s-eye view of his village landscape directly onto his bedroom wall.

Animation eventually allowed him to combine these two creative fields, which he had previously pursued separately. In early 2023, he released his debut ambient EP, “Grudzień” (December). In September 2025, together with his brother Piotr Paśnicki, he released “Atlas”, an instrumental post-rock journey through the towns and villages of eastern Poland.

Alongside his musical work, he has created several animated films, including “FORT IV”, “PRZEPRASZAM” (I’m Sorry), and “Maszynista Grot” (Grot the Train Driver), based on a short story by Stefan Grabiński.
