#389: 2012.09.23
this edition of framework:afield has been produced in the united states
by john f. barber, and is entitled tell me a story about meditation. for
more informationon his work, see his website at
http://www.nouspace.net/john. or to see this show on his site, see
http://www.nouspace.net/john/sound/storyaboutmeditation.html. from the
producer:
Tell Me A Story about Meditation revisits two earlier works, Tell Me A
Story and Meditation to create a non-linear narrative. The work utilizes
sampling, found and/or environmental sound artifacts, field recordings,
phonography, soundscapes, and acousmatic compositions. Less a work of a
traditional radio narrative and more a work of transmission arts, Tell
Me A Story about Meditation samples various sound media streams to
create a remixed narrative of the moment, especially as it might be
practiced through thoughtful (meditative?) listening.
John F. Barber teaches in The Creative Media & Digital Culture Program
at Washington State University Vancouver. With regard to sound arts, he
is interested in opportunities afforded by Internet radio, online
iReportage, transmission arts, and geo-locative audio-based
immersive/interactive experiences, especially as they might promote
aural compositions/performances/installations as the basis for engaged
narrative.
again, we are always looking for new material, whether raw field
recordings, field recording based composition, or introduction
submissions. we are also now accepting proposals for full editions of
our guest curated framework:afield series. send proposals or material,
released or not, on any format, to the address at the bottom of this
mail. if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch!
