Workshop: Listening as Artistic Practice

By Sound Art Lab were we invited to do a workshop at Dansk Talentakademi engaging with the student into Listening as Artistic Practice.

 

We were primarily interested in going through a range of exercises, individual or collective, that in different ways opened up what it means to listen – that made the student engage with their bodily experience of attend to their own listening, and being listened too…

 

Most interesting were to hear from the students how they value listening, and being properly listened to – but not as something that happens often. As a goal of the evening we attempted to include rest and being attentive and slow together as a way of listening – also as an artistic in itself.
