Listening Feedback: a session led by Julia Eckhardt

Call for Participants: aux) invites students and alumni from Sandberg and Rietveld for a second event guided by Julia Eckhardt. During this session, participants will have the opportunity to share their own audios, scores, or performances with each other, and have a close conversation and feedback from Julia. The idea is to start nurturing a space together where we can collaborate, create and think around sound matters, with an open and experimental approach. Participants will be asked to bring a sound material no more than 5 minutes long. We strongly encourage applicants with any kind of experience and from diverse backgrounds to participate.

Wed
16 Feb
— 17 Mar 2022

Taking the ocean as a metaphor, aux) and Studium Generale invite you to a series of sonic events that navigate psycho-acoustic watery surroundings and the fluidity of electromagnetic noise.

Closed-Eye #1: The Tuning of our Hearing with Andreas Tegnander

Our deep connection to the sound of water is a journey that starts in the oceans and ends up on land. "The Tuning of our Hearing" is a sonic exploration that dives into the essence and nature of human auditory perception, and its relation to water and the voice.

Closed-Eye #2: Electromagnetic and Acoustic Detritus with Sajjra Xhrs Galarreta

Concert: March 16 Place: The Gym Time: TBC

Soundwalk: March 17 Place & Time TBC

Using recycled electronic waste, DIY microphones and sensors, Xhrs Galarreta will guide us through the fluidity of electromagnetic noise that passes through and around us. These interventions will take place as a concert within the Studium Generale programme, followed by an outdoor soundwalk.

Limited spaces for the soundwalk. Get in touch for more info or to RSVP.
