An invitation to students to join a small creative project with Sharon Stewart
news 08 October 2024Sharon Stewart invites ArtEZ students to join her for a month-long, 2-3 hours per week, participation in a project to explore our embodied and aural relationship to ArtEZ. Focusing on listening, recording, and sharing text scores (written or spoken instructions for exploration).
Invitation to participate: Creative Sonic Cartographies of ArtEZ (Arnhem, Enschede and Zwolle)
PROCESS:
You will commit to forming small groups (2-3 participants) who will choose and explore, through listening and collaborative and creative work, one theme regarding your aural relationship to ArtEZ. This might be (something like):
When? November 2024
Where?
Through this process, you and I will come to understand something about the field of human(ist) geography (Yi-Fu Tuan was a central thinker), specifically focused on sonic explorations that highlight creative, relational interactions: sonic cartographies, soundmapping, soundwalking and field recording processes.
PLEASE NOTE: These investigations will be part of the final publication of the Professorship Theory in the Arts at ArtEZ. Your recordings, scores, and observations will become part of this publication, in compliance to your wishes and informed consent.
Interested?
Please send an email to Sharon s.stewart@artez.nl with a short description of your current studies and motivation for participating.
