In August/September 2023 we had the pleasure of working with an amazing group of participants from The NOW Project on a Good Relation focused digital arts programme.

On week one,  the group got stuck into graphic design looking at personal identity, making collages showcasing their favourite hobbies and interests, looking at similarities and differences and sharing those with the group. We looked at a range of world cultures using interactive quizes and creative activities based around food and music from around the world. Week two saw the group take our world music quiz to get inspiration before recording their own electronic tracks. Young people looked at flag and emblems and what the represent and designed a flag for their own fictional country, using the graphic design skills. The group took part in a wide range of creative activities including Stop Motion, creating super hero fx, digital comics to document their experience as well as creating a group DJ mix. 

The group got stuck into music production using the launchpad app, fusing sounds from various world music cultures with contemporary music styles. They also tackled on one of our trademark quizzes, testing their knowledge of musical genres and styles from across the world.
