Audio Testimonies Online Symposium 2020

This symposium considers the place of Audio Testimony in artistic practice, and will explore the ways in which artists use sound to enable new forms of testimony, and create new artistic configurations, which engage public consciousness. It aims to open a discussion on this topic and form the start of a network which will continue exploration of these themes. It will do so through a day of presentations focusing on particular works and via a social activity of collectively making audio testimony.

We welcome anybody working with testimony to apply by submitting a position statement indicating the ways in which your interest relates to the call.

Details of the call can be found at https://www.crisap.org/event/audio-testimonies-symposium-call-for-participation/

Participants will give lightning presentations (of 5-minutes) of their different perspectives at the start of the workshop to encourage a sharing from academics, practitioners and professionals of all disciplines.
