The bITjAM is a response to a real need in the creative community for a space in which to explore digital arts, creative ideas, collaborations and soundscapes.
Carl Plant and Ben McManus are the main animators of the bitjam, playing, organising, publicising, delivering workshops and digitally animating spaces. They are aware that the main aim of biTjAM is about collaborating and sharing ideas, communication through sound and value of experimentation.
Since its inception, biTjAM have been involved in collaborations with visual artists from all over the midlands. Musicians and sound artists from Stoke to Stockholm have travelled to be a part of the experience and have intern continued some of these creative collaborations.

Toys and noise for a winter’s bITjAM
We are focusing the next bITjAM (3rd December) on a winter themed project called Standstill which is being run by the Barefoot doctors. We hope to have people turn up with gadgets, synths, noise making toys etc and contribute to a soundscape which will be recorded ready for the Hanley town centre based Standstill project on December 21st. More details to follow for standstill…
If you want to join in the soundscape just bring along any kids toy (with their kind permission) and we will help you add the sounds to the overall piece.
It will be a fun experience…we promise…
