Sound Lines / Drawing Scores

In this workshop we explored a series of combinations and intersections between drawing, gesture and sonic representation. We began by working with the components of sound and drawing separately, then slowly integrated both into a single process.

Environmental Sound Installations, research and construction

This workshop involves the research, design and construction of “environmental sound installations” using primarily available materials, found objects and recycled materials. This case means constructing an installation that produces acoustic sound from the natural forces of wind or water.

Łódź, an urban sound ecology

This project aims to understand the role that sound plays within the ecology of urban life, through a continuous series of analytical exercises and artistic interventions. Working with sound implies that all activities are context specific as sound is always intimately linked to space in which it occurs and the materials and actions from which it originates.

Sound Mapping: exploring perspectives in listening

experimental workshop about the perception of sound and using observation to direct attention for understanding how sound affects the way we think about time and space. Space can be understood in many ways, but this workshop focuses on the “mapping” of space through experiences that range from cartography to more personal impressions.
