Sound and the Twentieth-Century Avant-Garde
Led by Lina Dzuverovic-Russell, Rob Young and Anne Hilde Neset from The Wire and Electra
|
From the noises of Futurism and Dada to the Silence of John Cage, this course on Monday evenings will be an opportunity to
explore key acoustic moments of the twentieth-century avant-garde.
Lectures, listening sessions, screenings and artists' interviews will be used to explore the different ways artists have exploited
the materiality of sound, with an emphasis on sound as a political tool and on the confluence between sound, film and performance.
The course will finish by considering contemporary plunderphonic outputs, effects of sampling and 'copyleft' strategies of
the 'Creative Commons'.
