Synth Library Prague: Nehudba Nemíst – Sara Pinheiro & Mary C

Synth Library Prague: The music of no place: What are we going through lately? How does sound pass through us, and what does it leave behind? Do we realize how big a source of sound pollution we are, and how can we respectfully keep silent about it? Who do we include under the term public, and who therefore has the opportunity to co-shape the so-called public space? Whose voice and actions are heard? And where will our attentively listening feet lead us?

The first walk on Tuesday, June 23 from 18:30 will be presented by Mary C, and then artist and researcher Sara Pinheiro will lead us from deep listening to deep recording, so that the soundscape gradually reveals itself to us and we get to what we don't normally hear. We will be inspired by the ideas and practice of Pauline Oliveros and Murray Schaffer, and at the end we will expand our hearing abilities with special microphones. The walk will be conducted in English.

No previous knowledge or experience of sound is required.

The walk, with an explanation and practical part, will last approximately 90 minutes and is suitable for everyone aged 12 and over.

Capacity is limited, booking required at synthlibrary.cz.
