What is Sound Art in the 21st century? Who are today’s performers, and what do they do to find and create sounds that make us listen, think, discuss, doubt, or imagine? What sounds have been made and presented recently to attract an audience of listeners, artists, fans, researchers and aficionados? How do genres of popular culture relate to Sound Art?
On June 9th, from 7pm we want to celebrate at Errant Sound in Berlin Mitte the publication of a handbook that addresses precisely these questions: Sanne Krogh Groth and Holger Schulze’s “Bloomsbury Handbook of Sound Art” (2020). The 24 chapters by 37 authors from 13 countries examine a range of performances, installations and practices, including sound, listening and sensing.
