Mapping out the Sonic Unconscious: Discussion and Sound Works
emerging from the search for the sonic unconscious. Part of Petra
Klusmeyer's OPEN PROCESS series at Dartington Gallery, University
College Falmouth, Dartington Campus.
with participation from Ariane Delaunois, David Strang, Joe
Scarffe, Rosalind Holgate Smith, Sebastian Hau Walker.
Hosted by David Strang's Surface Sound Series on Soundart Radio.
OPEN PROCESS series curated by Helen Pritchard & Gillian Wylde
invites artists to explore collaborative processes of doing and
making in an experimental lab context.
As part of the OPEN PROCESS series at Dartington Gallery,
University College Falmouth, Dartington Campus, Petra Klusmeyer
sets out to investigates questions in regard to auditory and
psychological aspects of spatiality. What is the relationship
between sound, space and memory? How does sound influence the
perception and representation of space, and how can we transcribe
auditory memory in ways which interpret individual perspectives and
meanings and hereby draw-out the sonic unconscious?
Participants were invited to develop strategies to translate the
auditory experience into the gallery space either indiviually or
collectively. The focus of this artistic experiment does not lie on
sound production and composition; the aim lies on the convergence
between sound and artistic practices, i.e., writing, installation,
performance to conjure up a topology of unconscious knowing.
