Warren&rsquo;s work has been presented internationally, and she previously served as Visiting Assistant Professor of Electronic Music and Multimedia at Brown University.</p><p>&quot;I have had a tremendously inspiring sonic experience as the 2026 ARP Foundation Artist-in-Residence, from recording with the vintage instruments at TRC, to performing on the ARP @ 100 concert at Berklee, to working with Peter Edwards to develop this two-part, ARP-centric workshop+concert event at SynthCube on October 3,&quot; said Warren. &quot;Before this year my ARP experience was limited to the 2500, but through this residency I&#039;ve been thrilled to learn much more about the vast collaborative and creative potential of all the ARP instruments!&quot;</p><p>The program begins at 3 p.m. with The Art of Rest, a hands-on, exploratory workshop featuring ARP instruments and other synthesizers. Co-facilitated by Warren and Peter Edwards of <a href=\"https://casperelectronics.com/\"><u>Casper Electronics</u></a>, the session will use sound and conversation to invite participants into a shared exploration of listening, attention and rest.</p>\n    <figure\n        class=\"release-content-image release-content-image--contained release-content-image--align-center\"\n        data-component=\"image-zoom-popup\"\n        data-image-zoom-popup-selector=\".release-content-image__image\"\n        data-image-zoom-popup-i18n=\"data:application/json;base64,eyJEb3dubG9hZCI6IkRvd25sb2FkIn0=\"\n        data-image-zoom-popup-tracking-views-event=\"Story Image View\"\n        data-image-zoom-popup-tracking-download-event=\"Story Image Download\"\n        data-image-zoom-popup-placement=\"content\"\n    >\n        <div class=\"image-thumbnail-rollover\" style=\"width: 100%\">\n            <img\n                src=\"https://cdn.uc.assets.prezly.com/be690928-168b-40c4-a267-edb78592cf87/-/resize/1200x/-/format/auto/\"\n                                class=\"release-content-image__image image-thumbnail-rollover__image\"\n                data-description=\"Peter Edwards\"\n                id=\"image-be690928-168b-40c4-a267-edb78592cf87\"\n                data-id=\"be690928-168b-40c4-a267-edb78592cf87\"\n                data-original=\"https://cdn.uc.assets.prezly.com/be690928-168b-40c4-a267-edb78592cf87/-/inline/no/peteEdwardsHeadshot.jpg\"\n                data-mfp-src=\"https://cdn.uc.assets.prezly.com/be690928-168b-40c4-a267-edb78592cf87/-/resize/1200x/-/format/auto/\"\n                alt=\"Peter Edwards\"\n            />\n            <div class=\"image-thumbnail-rollover__caption\">\n                <svg class=\"icon icon-expand image-thumbnail-rollover__caption-icon\">\n                <use xlink:href=\"#icon-expand\"></use>\n            </svg>            </div>\n        </div>\n\n        <figcaption class=\"release-content-image__caption\">Peter Edwards</figcaption>\n    </figure>\n<p>Edwards is a synthesizer engineer, product developer, artist and musician working under the name Casper Electronics.
