ECHOES

Jeg kan huske ® Støvring er en musikalsk genfortælling af Støvrings historie, skabt af elever fra Støvring Gymanasium i samarbejde med komponist Hans Sydow. Eleverne har valgt en række locations i Støvring, som de har en særlig relation til og kan fortælle deres egen historie om. Teksterne er korte hverdagserindringer, der alle starter med ordene »Jeg kan huske ...«. Med en mobiltelefon og et sæt hovedtelefoner kan man gå på opdagelse i parken omkring Støvring Gymnasium og høre et lydlanskab af 24 korte historier om og lyde fra byen, et landskab der folder sig ud mens man går. 

Jeg kan huske ® Støvring er finansieret af Statens Kunstfonds huskunstnerordning.

Discover the glitz and glamour that lies behind this sleepy seaside town which was once the hub of the British film industry - our very own Tinsel Town by the Sea !

Follow the footsteps of stars of a bygone age to discover the hidden past of the Hollywood of West Sussex. Wander through "Bungalow Town" and picture the hustle and bustle that was once the place to live if you were an up and coming actor or actress in the early days of film.  From 1914 to 1923 it became a hive of activity after one of the earliest film studios was started at the Old Fort before a new studio complex was built at the Church of the Good Shepherd where famous films such as Little Dorrit and The Mayor of Casterbridge were filmed.

Your nostalgic journey through Hollywood ends at Marlipins – time to look at the facts and grab some refreshments!

Take yourself on a journey through Worthing’s rich cinematic history and discover locations and film facts you never knew.

CELADONAPHONIC is a conflation of two words: ‘celadon’, a type of clay used in traditional Korean ceramics and ‘phonic’ meaning 'of sound'. Six artists (3 Korean, 3 British) have been commissioned to make new sound works about ceramics - some have used field recordings as the basis of their work, others have evolved more conceptual processes. The works, taken together, explore the nature and practice of two very different making cultures.

This sound walk is presented in Stoke-on-Trent as part of British Ceramics Biennial and also in Seoul as part of Resonance Festival in November. 

Celadonaphonic is part of the Made in Korea project, a cultural dialogue between the UK and Korea, co-curated by ceramist Kay Aplin and sound artist, Joseph Young, in partnership with Hankil Ryu.

The wandering in a particular place leads you to discover something new: the cities are endless and constantly changing, there may be as impersonal, which is why we often fail to ask the right attention on where we are.
Aurora Sonora is an invitation to reflect on the perception of sound (and music) in the urban context, looking for a new outlook on the district, the different modes of living a certain place, focusing on listening.
Aurora Sonora is developed through a soundwalk  in certain streets and certain places of Aurora in Turin, thanks to geolocated site-specific sound compositions and the app, Echoes.
The research work carried out on the territory of three sound artists (George Alloatti, Alessandro Peiretti – Yellows and Fabio Battistetti – Eniac) in defining the places of intervention, allows you to discover streets, squares, never traveled before, or to live in a different light places already known.


Italiano:

Il peregrinare in un determinato luogo porta a scoprire qualcosa di nuovo: le città sono sconfinate ed in continua mutazione e possono presentarsi come impersonali. Per questo motivo spesso non si riesce a porre la giusta attenzione sul dove siamo. Il lavoro di ricerca realizzato sul territorio da tre artisti sonori torinesi - Giorgio Alloatti, Fabio Battistetti ed Alessandro Peiretti  - nel definire i luoghi di intervento sonoro, ha permesso di scoprire vie, piazze, che non avevamo mai attraversato o di vivere sotto un’altra luce luoghi già conosciuti. Questo tipo di esperienza è stato possibile grazie all’attenzione all’ascolto che ha aumentato la capacità percettiva.

Aurora Sonora si sviluppa attraverso un percorso di passeggiata sonora per alcune vie e determinati luoghi di Aurora a Torino, grazie alle composizioni site specific geolocalizzate. I partecipanti della passeggiata hanno la possibilità, grazie al supporto di uno smartphone, di immergersi nel contesto urbano con un approccio di ibridazione tra l’esistente e l’aumentato. La realtà oggettiva delle vie nel racconto sonoro.

Aurora Sonora è un invito ad una riflessione sulla percezione del suono, all’ascolto del contesto urbano ed alla ricerca di un nuovo sguardo sulla città.

The Old Quarter a journey through the Old Quarter of Hanoi…

Old Quarter - Hàng Bạc - Đào Duy Từ

Copenhagen Echoes is a sonic remix of the historic centre of Copenhagen, seen through the eyes of the writers Ludvig Holberg, Hans Christian Andersen, Jernskiæg and Charles Dickens and heard through the ears of composer and sound artist Hans Sydow. Copenhagen Echoes will lead you through a sonic dreamscape from Kongens Nytorv to Magstræde, that evokes the spirit of the place. Along the route a mix of sound from Copenhagen and Hanoi will let you pass a sound bridge between the two cities.

A holistic meditation based on the book Animate Earth by the scientist Stephan Harding.

Echoes commissioned artist Lương Huệ Trinh to create a walk for Hanoi city centre.

Trinh’s walk in Hanoi starts from Lý Thái Tổ park, and continues around Hoàn Kiếm lake, covering the oldest and most iconic parts of Hanoi while traversing the beautiful parks in a comfortable strolling area.

"Through the process of working on the Echoes project, and on the choosing of sounds for each spot on the map, I had the idea to create an open space for the imagination, for participants who took part in the soundwalk. I thought carefully and chose special sounds for each set of places in Hanoi, and at the same time to connect each sound in Copenhagen that sound artist Hans Sydow sent.

I used some original sounds that don’t exist on the streets today, for example the sound of the electric tram, some traditional music like the type of ‘hát xẩm’ music that was performed on the trams, and a number that still exist such as street calls, the sound of idle conversation, and the sound of vehicles that I have processed and convolved together, sometimes deformed, broken up or echoing as if coming from a dream. I wanted each participant to hear two sound sources at the same time, one that is being heard directly through the headphones and the second that is more abstract, that opens a larger space in that space. From these two sound sources, they can link between the present and the past to feel and experience Hanoi in a totally new way."

I am a sound artist and I live in UK. 
I am the founder of the Poetry Sound Library, an archive that preserve the voices of poets from past and present. 
I research ways to link poetry to the landscape. 
My sound walks are in UK and around the world. 

Among my projects there is "Voice of Trees, a sound walk to discover the voices of the most important poets from the Poetry Sound Library: monumental trees or parks receive a poet's voice and they become part of an inspiring sound installation.
