‘The Sounds of Empathy’ at the Design Thinking Conference

For the third time, we will facilitate a Music Thinking breakout session during the Design Thinking Conference in Amsterdam. This time we call our session The Sounds of Empathy.

Like previous years, the conference has the subtitle ‘through different eyes‘ and the focus on empathy. Instead of definitions, tools and showcases, the conference focuses on inspirations to question oneself, debates getting further, perspectives outside the comfort zones, all in togetherness and positivism, and with a bit of lightness.

The Sounds of Empathy

During the breakout session, we will touch all six cues of the Music Thinking Framework, starting with the Empathy cue. Empathy is the cue to change. It starts with listening.
In the workshop, we go on a quest to find sounds of empathy. We share the sounds, make a short interactive composition and perform it at – and together with – the conference.
