Davide Tidoni
listening/intervention workshop
convent and environs
Center for Architectural Heritage Plasy
Sunday, 14 October, 9-12 AM
Theis workshop resembles an extended performance. Participants become actively involved in the creation/experience of the proposed activities. Far from being confined to the sonic domain, the workshop introduces concepts and principles that can easily be appropriated and applied to other research fields. In this respect, it functions as a stimulus for interdisciplinary practice and as a context for experimentation.
The workshop is open to anyone concerned with the possibility of interaction between sound, space and listening. Through a series of pieces and exercises that stage specific acoustic phenomena, the workshop encourages the active role of the listener and his/her own potentials to perceive and engage with sound. The main aim of the workshop is to offer a wide range of listening experiences in order to lead participants to recognize sound as a concrete presence that puts the listener in relation with space and other people’s bodies.
The workshop will take place Sunday, 14 October, 9-12 AM
