‚Sound and Public Space‘- Our Symposium Part III

Raul Keller is a young Estonian artist whose works can currently be seen in Kumu’s exhibition ‘Out of Sync – Looking back at the History of Sound Art’ (until January 12, 2014). Right at the beginning of his talk he informs us that he does not actively consider himself a sound artist:

‘I work predominantly with sound but also with photography, the fine arts and text. I think John used a very nice term: ‘auditory culture’ – the contemporary field which embraces music and sound art approaches and somehow blends them with popular culture and different practices.’

‚Sound and Public Space‘– Our symposium in Tallinn, Part II

“Most people would probably say that architecture does not produce sound, it cannot be heard. But neither does it radiate light yet it can be seen. We see the light it reflects and thereby gain an impression of form and material. In the same way we hear the sounds it reflects and they, too, give us an impression of form and material”

(Steen Eiler Rasmussen – Experiencing Architecture (1959)

In the second part of our symposium, the American artist John Grzinich, based in Estonia, talked about the project ‘tuned city: architecture and sound’ in Tallinn.

‚Sound and Public Space‘– Our symposium in Tallinn, Part I

Last week – some of you might have seen that on Facebook – we had a symposium on sound and public space in Tallinn. Our speakers were journalists, artists, innovation designers and sound architects who presented a wide variety of their projects.

While we don’t want to bore you with long accounts of what was said, we would very much like to show you some of the work that was shown to us.
