More Details
For HYENAZ, sounds are also bodies: interconnected, multiple, animate. Neither mine nor yours, we encounter sound within a field of power. Through the embodied and unceasing practice of encountering sound as alive, HYENAZ have gathered countless techniques for un-thinking mastery over sound. This is an invitation to share these techniques with you and to invite you to considering the animacies of sound as you work with it as both material and agency.
Across four weeks you will learn techniques to record the soundscapes and objects of the urban and natural environment, tactics for un/doing the extractive tendencies of artistic practices, methodologies for archiving and text writing, skills to mix and transform these sounds with an attitude of play using a DAW such as Bitwig or Ableton, and finally the confidence to give these works heft through experimental writing and movement exercises.
By the end of this workshop series, those who take part will be equipped with the tools and knowledge to create unique and powerful sound-based performances.
