Sound jams research

about

This page is about the collective research on sound publications, audiozines and sound jams by mits🤖 & ☾ Ål Nik ☾ Our research is starting in three main directions and will most probably focus and narrow down on the go and while gathering data:

# ways to create a collective sound publication [sound jams] // october-november 2022
-we will make series of facilitated jams in order to explore various ways to create sound publications and audiozines in group
-we understand jams as collective moments of listening and responding - we create improvised sound pieces together no matter if we have musical training or not
-we will explore various topics through introducing reads and different ways to conduct a jam session
-we will try out collectively several aspects of our individual research
-we will ask for consent for recording the sessions and for editing them later

# ways to collect sound [field recordings] // tba
-we are interested in exploring soundscapes
-field recordings will also happen during facilitated jams - some jams will take place outside and will explore soundscapes
-create instruments and sounds with pure data

# ways to edit sound pieces and create audiozines [mixing and editing] // tba
-we would like to explore ways to mix and edit sound
-we are interested in finding out why we edit in a particular way
-we are going to research the theoretical background of mixing and editing, too
