Family workshop: Electronic music (age 7+)
On the spectacular site of Observatory Hill, families experienced the latest contemporary art in The Last Resort by celebrated French/Albanian artist Anri Sala. Led by experienced educators, families then worked together to construct their own synthesiser and experiment with a range of sounds and beats, using the littleBits modular system of electronic components.
This workshop was designed for families with children aged 7+, and offered a fun and engaging platform for experimentation in art, music and science. No soldering required!

Australia is often referred to as the land of parrots. We have more than 56 species
of parrots, from the smallest, the double-eyed fig parrot (Cyclopsitta diophthalma), to the largest, the palm cockatoo (Probosciger aterrimus). 
Many Aboriginal creation stories across Australia will tell you that
birds are connected to the spreading of fire. Often cheeky birds would steal fire and accidentally drop it as they fled, inadvertently gifting it to
everyone.
