Projects
At Sounds Like Touch, we support projects that bring sound, touch, technology and bodily expression together on stage. This page showcases what we are currently involved in or have previously worked on.
Tactology Lab
Sounds Like Touch’s main recurring project is Tactology Lab. This is a structured programme spanning multiple days that brings artists and creators together to explore new ways of tactile interaction with electronics.
NIME 2024
From September 2 to 6, 2024, Utrecht hosted New Interfaces for Musical Expression (NIME): the international conference exploring experimental musical instruments and performance technologies. Organised by Sounds Like Touch, Gaudeamus, and HKU, NIME2024 brought together global researchers, artists, and musicians for a week of talks, concerts, and hands-on exploration.
