What is sonic fiction?

You don't know? We have a slight idea.

Bring to the workshop:

any kind of an object to deconstruct (completely demolish, it will never be the same)

split into duos/trios explain divide tasks
take a picture of the object
set up recording (sound (tape or digital) and video)
deconstruct object & take notes
break
listen & choose sound (long continuous sound of proces and sample for short loops)

an intruduction to Magnetic tape [Mark] ~10min File:A)PART to de(PART magnetic-tape-presentation.pdf
introduction of the tools and recording gear

- record sound on tape (long continuous and loops)

for focus, asociation flow, sensibility to sound, imagination, narratives, ...

(warm up, led by Tisa)

Everybody stands up and makes a circle.
Physical warmup (each person proposes an exercise, all repeat)
Free movement (closed eyes, moving as you need, making sounds as they come)
Shaking (shaking different bodyparts and making a relaxed sound)
Repetition (standing in a circle, one makes a gesture and a sound, the next one repeats it as precisely as possible, and so forth)
Rhythm (establishing a common rythm, repetition of "rak-pak shalala", passing words)
Passing (one makes a sound, the next one in the circle responds with a word that describes the sound, next one translates it back to sound, etc.)
Associations (passing words associations in a circle - also sounds and words in any language, keeping the rhythm)
Onomatopoetic transcriptions (one makes a sound, everybody repeats the sound, each writes down the sound, 10x)

Echo exchange (people exchange the papers, vocalizing the written in a repeated manner (loop), while holding their palms in front of their mouth in order to amplify the sound for them)
Analog asmr (insert index finger into your ear, tap and stratch and play on your hand, listen)

A moment of reflection was now lost in time:

Questions to improve the

How can we emphasize the connections between the parts more?
How can we define and communicate a more clear 'goal'?
- the goal is to....

- as a method we use...
