Music for lighthouse-keeping, sensuous lovers, or the dining room of the athlete’s village at the Tokyo Olympics in 1964; a quick search on the music database Discogs indicates that as of November 2024, it contains 3,363 unique entries that have “music for …” in their title. These titles suggest that the music is preconditional; they are, for example, intended for a specific place, activity, or audience. During “Music for Biscuits and Other Preconditional Sounds,” sound artist Oscar van Leest will share some general reflections on the historical and contemporary contexts of listening and host a listening session featuring some of his favorite finds among the vast number of “Music for …” works that exist.

The Purple Lab collective is launching its “Les Indépendances” festival in Paris and has brought together 30 artists for the occasion to take over the Mains d’Œuvres space and share counter-narratives of the Independences. Through an exhibition, performances, workshops for all audiences, meetings, film screenings and an eclectic line-up, we invite you to meet them on October 19!

O O O o o, we are back with a warm & full program for next week and would be so happy if you would join us:

Last season interlude. That was, like, an entire sentence that we somehow built together with nouns and verbs and connective tissue. They were thinking how it was the connective tissue (yes the connective tissue) which it was all about. They were trying out shyly to offer ways of listening. But they could not say the day was over. The business, they thought, was not only unfinished but maybe not done enough. The ears still open. The people, yes all still here, byob, old friend. The thought of seeing each other again. The potentiality still glimmering around. And look, there might be even some new things awaiting you.

Join us for a 4-day sonic celebration in the Graphic Design bookshop at the end of the 1st floor hallway (RV building)

B of blue - join us tomorrow

well we are just an open call but I think the people from interlude are creating a bi-monthly event in which there will be a space, technical equipment, exciting listeners and drinks and food provided.

We invite you to join our second listening session to talk about the art of looping, sampling, infinity music and explore the massive work or Pamela Z.
