Title Description:
with Giuseppe Ielasi, Michel Henritzi, Brandon LaBelle, Minoru Sato (m/s), Achim Wollscheid and a foreword by Barbara Schroeder (48 page book with CD) "With the increasingly disparate and displaced borders of locality, media, and artistic practice, sound-art has emerged as a productive lens and framework through which to articulate the contemporary condition, not through the production of objects but through situational and contextual intervention, from private to public space, analogue to electronic. Social Music documents a series of radio broadcasts for Kunstradio in Vienna from 2001 by media and sound artists Giuseppe Ielasi, Michel Henritzi, Brandon LaBelle, Minoru Sato (m/s), and Achim Wollscheid. The works were commissioned to question, rethink and reinvenst in radiophonic space as an aural, social and architectural infrastructure.
Social Music looks towards the contextual environment of both personal space and cultural framework as an input into the actualizing of artistic processes and their ultimate output. Housed within a beautifully designed 48 page book, the compact disc of audio works is complemented by texts and images by the artists, an introduction by Brandon LaBelle and a foreword by Barbara Schroeder from Kunstradio.
