Since 2018, 'Netzwerk Konnakol.de' is teaching & researching advanced southindian time-counting techniques. We developed a course module-system with various contents specialized for typical needs of western musicians and composers, aimed at students, professionals and step-by-step courses for beginners. In the 'carnatic module' the traditional usages of structures can be learned, too. (Read also our introductory text).
