For the embodiment project, I would like to curate an exhibition which the main idea is to embody sound. So far, I name the project as SoundARCH, then the exhibition would title "Shut Your iPod Off".
As a musician interested in sound art, I would like to address the importance of soundscapes and natural sounds in this project. The curation will extensively use audio/sound technology and then I would like to draw this notion of technology to the audience's attention. Since today we have the technology (iPod/MP3 player/MP3 cellphone) to enjoy music anytime and anywhere, people become more and more ignorant with what happens around them. Hearing/listening is a different sensation compared to seeing, so I hope to raise awareness of the beauty of natural sound. The exhibition will involve interactive space between visitors and "sound".
so did you create this exhibition? sounds fabulous!
ReplyDeleteNo, this ambitious idea was drafted for a "fiction" exhibition. I will probably make it practically happen in future! I'm currently working on a real sound project that has a similar idea.
