VOICE and the UNKNOWN
an international vocal performance research symposium
January 28th - January 30th
The aim of this artistic research symposium is to allow for VOICE to act as a guide into the UNKNOWN. Through an entangled mish-mash of intra-active events (performances, installations, workshop and seminars) participants will be invited to explore the potential power of VOICE and its impact on the UNKNOWN or ‘that-which-is-yet-to-be-known’. Questions driving the event include: how can we understand VOICE in contemporary every day performances, based on both sensuous and intellectual knowledge? What specific vocal features will emerge if we allow VOICE to be the guide into the UNKNOWN aspects of life and living?

Leif JF Calloiscott
The vertigo of play and fantasy in the theories of Leif J. F. Calloiscott
November 3rd - March 1st
A presentation of original recordings and a reenactment of the little-known Swedish child psychologist Leif J. F. Callioscott. He was an experimental practice based academic whose theory of ‘Audible Transitional Objects’ places play and fantasy as crucial cornerstones in child development. At the same time, he was convinced that the fantastical, magical or “unreal” sonic elements that we are exposed to whilst young help us create a picture of reality as its polar opposite.

The Politics of Rhythm
an experimental research lab
January 3rd - January 17th
The Politics of Rhythm is a 4-week intensive and hands-on research lab which takes experimental approaches to rhythm as it’s central point of exploration. Led by composer/percussionist Greta Eacott, the lab will facilitate the development of installation and performance works that explore, deconstruct and look to expand on current ways of understanding and working with rhythm and rhythmic systems.

Constructed Weather (part2)
Jonna Hägg
November 4th - October 31st
The project revolves around the weather, the force of nature and its soundscapes. The sound tracks will be based on field recordings made in different locations, mostly from Iceland and Gotland. In these sounds the power of nature is in a kind of imbalance: the sounds are threatening, vibrating, alarming and capturing at the same time nature’s great reserves of power.

J&K will experiment with combining and juxtaposing fragments, ritual elements and immersive participation as well as staged abstract material installations into a durational multimedia piece.

Broom as ice-skater
18 January - 20 January 2019
This project is an on-going investigation into how illusions of space and movement are constructed, today and throughout history, and how these constructions shape the way we understand reality. These questions are investigated through the medium of animation and 3D-scanning, and by examining elements such as souvenirs, toys, landscape-gardens, architectural floorplans, impulse responses, Foley sound, apostrophes, folly ruins, elliptical poetry, baroque machines, trompe l’oeils, theater scenography, film sets, and special effects.
