Phin Culture & Phin Making by Kammao Phinprainn
Without earth, there would be no land, soil, human beings, and beautiful nature.
We can see the link between the earth and other objects clearly from the indigenous's way of life, especially in Thailand. By living closely with nature, the indigenous people know how to consciously use natural materials to create necessary stuff such as musical instruments, houses, basketry, and agricultural equipment while taking care of nature's ecosystem. This matter became our inspiration to conduct this workshop.
Therefore, in this exclusive activity, all participants will get hands-on experience to create a creative-listening tool while understanding more about the value of the earth.
Workshop:
Meet Kammao's sons and family, the future and continuity of Isan's Phin and part of Molam preservation kin. In this creative hands-on workshop, participants will be asked to use easy-to-find natural or recycled materials which can be found in the area and try to assemble, add, or build sound-making tools. For example, participants can use rock or leaves and make the sounds or the listening aid such as handmade headphones that can uplift the listening experiences at Wonderfruit. After that, everyone will play and try each other's inventions.
Featuring Ajahn Kammao himself, exclusively for the first time, revealing the secret of his Phin making his signature sound. Plus Kammao & Sombat Simla performance on the Molam Bus stage in the same day after the workshop.
About: Kammao is a well-renowned Phin player of The Paradise Bangkok Molam International Band. Dubbed as Thailand's Jimmy Hendrix of Phin, he is showcasing his unparalleled talents this year at Wonderfruit. This comprehensive workshop features Kammao and his family on how to make Phin, the different types of Phin and the story behind his Phin and experiences.
