"The electrical device essentially differs from the mechanical in that its components do not move. Movement implies freeing oneself from the ground in some way or other." Dick Raaymakers, the art of reading machines (1978 / 2008)
We will use texts and voice, toys and microphones, antennas, computers, generated sound, recorders, radios, and loudspeakers to compose sonic miniatures and sound collages. Every week each participant creates a one minute long piece. Course presenations will take place as a podcast and a radio broadcast. Participants should have a pair of headphones, an interest in creative listening, experimental radio, composing, editing and mixing recorded and generated materials and have basic experience in using portable sound recorders and editing software (daw).
Reading will include Roland Barthes, Lewis Carroll, Christina Kubisch, Dick Raaijmakers, Arundhati Roy and Susan Sontag.
