Listening & Field Recording Workshop w/ Kate Carr
October 3rd, 2018, 7-10pm
AKA/PAVED Arts Event Space
Presented in partnership with Sounds Like 8: Interventions – www.soundslikefest.com
In this workshop, you’re invited to come together to discuss soundscapes and favourite sounds, and take part in listening exercises before going outside to undertake field recordings and discuss the results. No experience necessary!
Kate Carr has been investigating the intersections between sound, place, and emotionality both as an artist and a curator since 2010. During this time she has ventured into tiny fishing villages in northern Iceland, explored the flooded banks of the Seine in a nuclear power plant town, and recorded wildlife in South Africa and in the wetlands of southern Mexico.
Her work draws on field recording, experimental composition and various techniques of sonic mapping to examine the ways we shape and are shaped by the lived sonic realities of our natural and built worlds. Kate Carr is currently PAVED Arts’ artist-in-residence.
