Saturday 19 May 2007, 10.00–17.00

Spaces are heard as much as seen. How do artists create work that investigates the impact sound has on our sense of place and self? Using short animated performances, presentations and films, artists, musicians, performers and historians illustrate how sound is captured and transformed into new practices. Guests include David Toop, Claudia Wegener, John Wynne and Tim Wainwright, Peter Cusack, Jem Finer, Zoe Irvine and Hayley Newman.
