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.

Boards of Canada

Tobi, here the tracks we have talked about on Monday. It's electronica from about 8 or 10 years ago - but it's still great.

Misc Playlist

Hi,

here is a playlist that might interest some of you. I have talked to Burcin and Ahmad about the sound artist Colleen and Maile Colbert. This might also be of interest for Efi - in terms of her own experiments. Also works by Olivia Block, a composer/sound artist I greatly appreciate.

Cheers, Petra
