Welcome to Sound Projects

Sound, Noise, Silence, and Music - how do we define them? When we listen to these elements critically, how can we use them in our own work with an awareness of their social and political functions? This course will explore developments in sound art from the early-20th century to the present, to cultivate a critical ear for listening and creating. We will listen to work by artists who have blurred traditional boundaries of music, science, design, fine arts, and philosophy, and read critical writings in cultural studies, sound and media theory.

Play list reading 7

HI everybody,
Here is a small playlist we (Efi and Ricardo) prepare for you. It is based on our assigned reading as you might know it is about the voice.
For our purposes, I suggest paying attention to the following pieces:
  • David Toop: The chairs story
  • The hafler trio: Inherent aggression
  • Art ensemble of Chicago: Hail we now sing joy
  • Walter Ruttman: Wochenende (already listen in class)
  • Kurt Schwitters: Die Sonate in Urlauten
The other pieces are references to current works by artists mentioned on reading 7.
