Talks & Masterclasses
We are obsessed with improvisation, creativity and the use of technology,
and we are always exited to share our findings.
Our lectures and masterclasses are often mixed with a musical live performance.

Talks
AnnaOtta @ Mobile Week Alcalá de Henares 2021
Under the subject of music and technology we showed our methods of live sampling to build up beats and textures and how we create instruments out of vocal samples both in software and hardware.
AnnaOtta @ FEX Festival Gran Canarias 2021
We were invited, among artists from other disciplines, to talk about creativity and experimentation.
Masterclasses
At AnnaOtta, we constantly explore how to practice inspiration, develop musical structures, and find meaning in improvisation. These guiding questions are at the core of our creative process.
In our masterclasses, we share these insights, offering practical methods for crafting improvisational rules and games suited for both solo and group performances.
Students gain adaptable tools to develop musical character and depth, applicable across genres and essential for composing original music.
We also emphasize sound quality, diving into timbre, resonance, dynamics, and analog effects—guiding musicians to effectively translate these qualities into the world of electronic sound and effects processing.
