Sonic perspectives on war, peace and the unending conversation between them.
This online symposium will take the form of a series of conversations between four pairs of artists about the specific aspects of sound, art and conflict that drive and influence their work. The artists will discuss a number of topics including the methodologies that they have used to produce work with people with traumatic stories to tell; their experiences of creating sound work in difficult and unstable circumstances; their attempts to develop the use of sound as a way of creating understanding in post conflict situations and the relationship between sound and the military and how artists have approached dealing with conflict and war through sound art.
