Public lecture and live performance. Presented as an extension of the VOLTA Abismal Festival, a world reference in the improvisation, sound art and experimental music scene. The invited artists will participate with two improvisation sets and will discuss their most recent research With the participation of British sound artists and researchers Ella Finer and J. Milo Taylor, the Polish Robert Piotrowics and the Mexican Juanjosé Rivas, the sound art and experimental music concert “VOLTA Showcase” will be held at the National Sound Library. The author of the book Acoustic Commons and the Wild Life of Sound, soon to be published, Ella Finer, and whose work in the field of sound and performance includes writing, composition and curating, will talk about her Score for Dark Voices. It is a work in which the acoustic worlds of the birds that live in the parks of London and Mexico City are superimposed with a vocal score that transposes the sounds of the language of birds into written symbols. In turn, J. Milo Taylor, whose study topics are listening strategies, cross-cultural exchange, open source and acoustic ecology, will focus his participation on artificial intelligence and open source digital technology to imagine diverse forms of life beyond the human. |
