All three cohorts of EPS apprentices meet for the first time to partake in a variety of team building tasks to help inform and promote their individual networks.

A series of regular management meetings to address new instrument designs being held in Schuster Conference Room, Physics.

This project will design and implement a set of four aurally and visually stimulating electro-mechanical instruments to support the outreach activities of the Hallé. The instruments will be fully programmable and accompanying software will enable a range of levels of interaction and improvisation to be possible.
