The project intends to organize a series of performances and workshops centered on extended instruments and global sounds concerning the idea of sonic identities and instrumental connotation in global cultures. At the present time, the instruments have been extended and developed in a more complex manner in a relation with the identity and tradition of the inventors and artists who built things, questioned the establishment, and discovered new sounds, tuning systems, and physical designs, including Futurist artists such as Henry Cowell, Conlon Nancarrow, and Harry Partch. The relationship between performing musicians and instrumental-makers led to the new discovery of sound-making and performance methods.

Randel Teaching and Research Fellowship for the academic year 2021-22, with the goal of developing and teaching a new interdisciplinary course called “Perform it Yourself (P.I.Y.)” at Cornell’s Music Department. Inspired by the phrase “do it yourself” (D.I.Y.), the course is designed for students to learn how to express themselves through musical performance—a facet that is often overlooked in normative collegiate music curricula—by applying their own background, expertise, and knowledge. Furthermore, the course provides learning opportunities in multidisciplinary areas and theoretical approaches to composition and performance, including issues of performer/audience engagement.
