Sound Art Brighton presents an online event exploring environmental and ecological practices in contemporary sound art. The event features a performance lecture with composers Teresa Carrasco (ES) and Michael Harenberg (DE) who lead the Sound Arts programme at the Bern University of the Arts. Harenberg will discuss his research into the impact of sound on ripening cheese with sonication; whilst Carrasco will draw from her research on bio-acoustics.
This will be followed by a listening session from SOUNDER (UK/CH), who will present their ‘Sound Postcards’ project: an exchange of audio snapshots of environmental sounds between Brighton and Bern. SOUNDER have been artists in residence with Sound Art Brighton during October 2021, here they will share the results of their in-person collaboration. SOUNDER is an international collaboration exploring the sounds of Bern, Switzerland and Brighton, UK, founded by artists Esme Wright (UK), Hal Kelly (UK), Flurina Mia Häberli (CH) and Stefano Christen (CH) in 2020. Their project explores the sonic characteristics of Bern and Brighton (two locations recognised as UNESCO biospheres); addressing environmental issues through an inclusive sound art practice. SOUNDER utilises digital technologies to promote awareness of our local sonic environments.
Environmental Sound Practices is curated by Sound Art Brighton, an independent initiative that celebrates the presence of sound art in Brighton.
