Piece – Presence – Practice: Aggregate States of Global Sound Artifacts
Kunstquartier Studio 1, Mariannenplatz 2, 10997 Berlin → MapTickets: 4 € / 8 € day pass (at the door)
31
SunHow do various cultures and sub-cultural scenes perceive the manifold work produced in the field of sound art? Is it a field in which "work" and "practice" might be mapped along a linear continuum? Or is global sound art destined always to navigate a complex and constantly shifting amoebic mix of fixed and fluid components?
Presented by DAAD Artists-in-Berlin Program and Deutschlandradio Kultur / Hörspiel – Klangkunst.
