Founded by Eric Landon in 2012 in Copenhagen Denmark, the Tortus Studio has become well known for the quality of its ceramics and teaching of pottery making skills. Eric has travelled the world with his unique style of teaching, helping thousands of aspiring and professional potters sharpen their skills by giving them a new respect for how earth should be treated on a wheel, and helping them throw with much less effort. In 2022 Tortus relocates to central London, Uk to grow the school and make it even more accessible.

I am interested in further enhancing the technical aspects in teaching myself throwing and turning. I want to improve techniques and learn to throw larger vessels, like Tortus, and find a way to link this to my FMP.

Throwing techniques I am interested in developing are learning how to differently texture my pieces during the throwing process, and learning how to throw perfect circles, which I can then adapt into sculptures.

I am considering bringing forward the idea of spherical throws turned into sculptures mimicking planets that all make a different tune when struck.

By bringing together a few different aspects of ceramics that I am interested in, I want to find a way to link sound and sculpture, perhaps by employing concave shapes in sculptures.

A potential idea is a sculpture that creates its own sound using marbles and collisions with pots, rather than making an immersive and interactive installation type experience.

This would move the concept further away from the idea of communication and more to do with a specific self communicating theme.

I would like the theme of communication to be engaged provided I go along the interactive instillation route for displaying the ceramics. I aim to narrow down this topic more as it is quite broad.

The representation of all different people and they're unique differences can be represented by the pots of all different shapes, sizes and styles , yet all contribute to a unique an beautiful sound when all brought together, linking to the inspiring nature of how impactful it can be when thousands of different people com forward to help employ change.

I could create a more organic, random layout for the pots. This could involve arranging the pots on a table or platform in a seemingly random manner, or hanging them from the ceiling in a way that creates a sense of movement and flow. This approach would create a more dynamic and interactive layout that invites viewers to explore the pots in a more free-form way.

I could instead create a more sculptural layout for the pots, by arranging them in a specific pattern or shape. This could involve stacking the pots on top of each other, or arranging them in a specific geometric shape. This approach would create a more visually striking and impactful layout that highlights the sculptural qualities of the pots.

He created is "Rainforest III", which was first performed in 1968, in this piece, Tudor used ceramic bowls, plates, and other objects to create a complex, layered soundscape. The sound of the ceramic bowls and plates was amplified and processed through electronic equipment, which Tudor manipulated in real-time to create a unique and immersive sound experience.

David Tudor also created other pieces that incorporated ceramic bowls and plates as sound-making instruments, such as "Rainforest II" (1968), "Rainforest V" (1973), and "Rainforest VI" (1973).

The artist and musician Paul DeMarinis, who has created several pieces that incorporate ceramic objects as sound-making instruments. He has used ceramic bowls and plates as well as teapots, in his work, and often uses them in conjunction with electronic equipment to create unique sounds and musical compositions.
