What is ‘sonic art’ or ‘sound art’?
Think of the weird and wonderful sounds you sometimes hear in an art gallery, or on the soundtrack of a film or game, or in concerts or as soundscapes for dance or theatre: but wherever you find it sonic art is as wide as your imagination.
Once associated with university music courses and contemporary music performances today’s availability of cheap technology has given the art form wings.
In this podcast Sonic Art: The Democratisation of Sound Eva Radich goes into kiwi sonic artists’ homes to find out what their art is all about. She talks to electro-acoustic pioneers Ross Harris and Chris Cree Brown, gurus like John Coulter and today’s sonic explorers Sonya Waters, Flo Wilson, Ruby Solly and Marcus Jackson and discovers that the digital age when everyone has a recording device on their phone has led to an explosion of talent and unlimited opportunities to contribute to the culture.
Host: Eva Radich
Guests: John Coulter, Chris Cree Brown, Ross Harris, Marcus Jackson, Ruby Solly, Sonya Waters, Flo Wilson
