Instrument Builders Project is a forum for experimental work – at the intersection of contemporary art, sound and music, and performance – engaging artists from Australia and the Asia-Pacific. Each IBP culminates in new and experimental works in the form of ‘instruments’.

The Guthman Competition is held every year at Georgia Tech and frequently features instruments and makers that are on this wiki. The idea of the competition is to show off innovations in musical instrument invention.

The Powsolo award started in 2020 and is an award competition for sound sculptures.

Instruments Make Play Festival ²⁾ is a festival about self invented musical instruments in the form of concerts, an exchange, workshops, exhibitions, residencies and much more. In November and December 2017 we had our first edition in three cities; Rotterdam, Amsterdam and Deventer. The festival is initiated, programmed and produced by Lukas Simonis, Julie Dassaud and Harco Rutgers.
