Assemblies

July – August, 2023

 

Whether on screen or face to face, assembling is how we forge human connection—an active, challenging and inspiring process of gathering distinct parts into a unified whole. When we assembly, virtually or physically, we come together to transcend barriers. We fuse our separate voices into a collective chorus; our singular works into a shared meaning; our solitary selves into something resembling wholeness. Beyond the sum of its parts, assembling holds the power to shape our shared future.

Over the course of 8 weeks, OneBeat Virtual brought together 25 Fellows from around the globe to a shared online space where they experimented with new forms of virtual collaboration, wrote and produced new works, and created a series of interactive sites for the public.

PHOTO BOOK

 

A collection of images created by the fellows during the OneBeat Virtual 4 Assemblies residency. Given two prompts by photographer Alexia Webster, fellows were invited to show us a glimpse of both the world that has shaped them into who they are and their subconscious worlds through a portrait of themselves in their night time dream worlds.

SONIC FINGERPRINT

REFLECTIONS, REFRACTIONS

Listen to what happens when the sound of rain and water from different corners of the world and the stories we tell about them intersect. Let your ears guide you as you explore the collective experience of rain and how they make us feel from across the world converge in a single virtual space.

Developed by Sourya Sen. Created as part of the Unknown Soundscapes Lab facilitated by Luisa Puterman.

Featuring contributions from Towfiq Arifin Turjo, Magui, Jose Buencamino, Double M, Juan ‘eachoneteachjuan’ Juarez, Nicole Luján, and Sourya Sen
