Time Based: Sonic Interventions —
Talks & Engagement Programme

The festival will incorporate a range of talks and engagement activities that explore the theme of sonic intervention.

Drawing from the air raid alarms that have become a stark reality in Ukraine, artist talks will investigate the dual nature of sonic interventions as both poetic and dangerous. Discussions will engage experimental artists working in sound, and thinkers from other disciplines to explore the political, social, and emotional impacts of sound — its capacity to affect both human and non-human inhabitants of the world.

Gallery Bagging [synonym] session

To delve deeper into the works featured at David Dale Gallery, on Friday 13 June, A-J Reynolds & Eliza Coulson — the women behind experimental writing platform Gallery Bagging — will host a [synonym] session, a facilitated group writing session that will concentrate on the collaboration between the collective force that is Photinus Studios & Scottish composer and sound artist Zoë Irvine. If you are looking to enhance your experience, to meet some new like-minded people and to improve your writing skills, then this session will be for you!
