Its purpose is to demonstrate that musical tools can be deeply personal spaces for reflection rather than just technical equipment. By focusing on the sensory qualities of noise and modulation, the work encourages users to embrace experimentation as a path to genuine expression. It addresses a need for instruments that prioritize the internal experience of the creator, allowing the audience to engage with sound as a rhythmic, cyclic process of self-discovery\u2014one where the imperfections of the DIY process become the most valuable elements of the composition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":12830,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"edition":[44],"award":[],"competition-category":[],"class_list":["post-13867","work","type-work","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","edition-cycles26"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>shepoth - AGRAFA<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/agrafa.asp.katowice.pl\/en\/praca\/shepoth\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"shepoth - AGRAFA\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"What is it about?
