In this workshop, we will explore the work of artist Debris Stevenson through selected elements from the exhibition The Music, Is the Body, Is the Word.
We will experience sound through the body, engaging with stimming, tapping and echolalia—practices that feature in Stevenson’s work and can also serve as tools for self-regulation for neurodivergent people.
Imagining the body as a radio with its own frequency—one that transmits, receives, tunes in and tunes out—we will explore how these practices can become a shared, collective experience. Together, we will listen to the space, to ourselves and to one another. We will move, vibrate, make sounds, repeat, imitate and experiment, paying attention to the unique frequencies that emerge from each body.
The workshop welcomes people of all bodies, minds and experiences. No previous experience is required.

His career in the field of sound creation and his work with environmental recordings spans over forty years. During this time, he has developed a sonic universe which is totally personal and iconoclastic, based on attentive listening to the world.
He has created hundreds of sound installations and projects with field recordings, as well as having held concerts/performances in more than seventy countries, including at major concert halls, museums, galleries, and international festivals like: the National Music Auditorium (Madrid), PS1 Contemporary Art Center (New York), Musée d'Art Moderne (Paris), International Film Festival (Rotterdam), Festival des Arts (Brussels), EMPAC (Troy, USA), Darwin Fringe (Darwin, Australia), Institute of Contemporary Art (London), Buenos Aires Museum of Modern Art, Museum of Contemporary Art of Barcelona, Center of Contemporary Art (Kita-Kyushu, Japan), Reina Sofía National Art Centre Museum (Madrid), the Spanish Pavilion at Expo Dubai (United Arab Emirates), etc.
His sound work includes live and studio collaborations —as well as projects he has curated and directed— with over a thousand artists from around the world. His works have been released by more than 450 record labels and publishers.
In addition to other international accolades, López has received an honorary mention at the renowned Ars Electronica Festival in Linz (Austria) on no less than five occasions and was the winner of the sound anthology category at the Qwartz Awards (France).
