Hybrid Sonicscapes

Project Overview

In an attempt to explore how the creative use of sound complicates the neat categories of sound /art /visual art /music /science /engineering’, KHOJ organised a one week intensive sound workshop between Jan 16- 22, 06. At a time when the mainstream engagement is moving increasingly towards the visual, the pilot workshop explored the nexus between technology, soundscapes and creativity. KHOJ played host to sonic practioners from diverse backgrounds and provided a discursive space where diverse practices, engagements with technology and approaches to ‘new media’ could be sensed, exchanged and engaged. This workshop was a seminal attempt by Khoj Studios to foster sonic arts within spaces and contexts generally reserved for visual arts. LISTEN TO THE OPEN STUDIO _ HYBRID SONICSCAPES >>>>
