 I'm really pleased to share this article, written by myself and Salomé Voegelin reflecting on our sound and text installation 'And it tastes like hair' that we made for the Translating Ambiance exhibition last year.
Have a read of Unlikely Journal, issue 6 guest edited by Jordan Lacey, we're one of a huge number of articles sharing thoughts and artworks on ideas of wildness and translation;  I'm putting together this exhibition as part of CRiSAP, Creative Research into Sound Arts Practice, research centre's, forthcoming festival;
Un-Earthed: A festival of listening and environment. A critical reflection on our relationships with the environments that we share with other people and with other species. This open call invites relational sound works that interrogate our sonic urbanism and sound out our sonic agency within it – works that trigger a hearing below the surface of our urban sonic landscapes in order to find something else within those same vibrations, to hear the unspoken or the cancelled out, the restraints or opportunities that might be found there, demonstrating our possibilities within these often seemingly impermeable spaces.
Full details are here: https://www.crisap.org/2020/04/24/call-for-works-online-sound-art-exhibition/  Kaffe Matthews and I are starting work on a new commission with The Bicrophonic Research Institute, creating a new sonic bike project for Middlesbrough with Auxiliary Gallery.
We're heading up to Middlesbrough this week for a one week residency, to start developing the project. We're thinking about air quality, noise pollution and generally what else might be in the air of Middlesbrough. The plan is to kit up the sonic bikes with air pollution sensors, to not only collect data, but to make their air quality audible. We're hoping to meet new people who'd like to get involved. If your based in the area, come and join us - we're holding an open day on Sat 22 Feb 2020. There will be vegan chili and drinks to enjoy too. Details here: https://www.facebook.com/events/1985213998290171/ The work will launch at MIMA for Sonic Arts Week July 18-25 2020, Orange Pip Festival August 2020 and Middlesbrough Art Weekender September 24-27 2020
 Hannah Kemp-Welch and I just passed our Amateur Radio exam and are now licensed for the Amateur radio waves!!
A giant home made aerial will soon be being strung out of one of our windows, as we get our radio shack set up... Thanks to the wonderful people at Eltham's Cray Valley Radio Society for the epic two day course to get us clued up and ready for the airwaves and part of the Radio Society of Great Britain. |
