The vernissage of “What is the Sound of Protest?” opened to a packed and excited audience at Errant Bodies on November 6th 2015, with performances and talks by Janine Eisenächer, Nicodemus, Stefan Römer and my alter ego Giuseppe Marinetti.
My thanks to the 15 artists who agreed to be part of the show at short notice and thanks as well to the audience for coming along and making it a great event. A recording of my Sonic Baton performance is below. The sound work was produced from a series of soundwalks with local sound artists, listening for the sounds of protest in historic areas. Neighbourhoods now gentrified beyond recognition, where the revolutionary past goes unacknowledged in the contemporary soundscape.
A text also titled “What is the Sound of Protest?” was produced for the event and is available here as a pdf.
