Where to land after the pandemic? Last year, French philosopher Bruno Latour wrote an article looking at what he called ‘barrier gestures’ – masks, walls, dividers, no-fly zones – all the things that were suddenly put in place to keep other elements out. Latour proposed that we imagine these ‘barrier gestures’ not only against the virus, but also how they might guard against other activities that we do not want returning after the pandemic, and the new opportunities this presents us. He poses a collective examination through 6 questions that call for reflection on the gestures we can assume to improve the activities we support and guard from those we don’t. In this elective, we attempt to offer an answer to these questions and others by articulating music as a sound-oriented common language allowing for cross-cultural collaboration.

Featuring Shivangini Yeashu Yuvraj (India), Ben Zucker (USA), Virginia Moreno (Venezuela), bella (Brazil), and Connie Fu (USA) with Luisa Puterman (Brazil)

Welcome to the Building Radio space, where we have taken the dimensions of scanning, tuning, and exploring of listening and made it a ‘physical’ experience. As a listener you can navigate through this space and ‘build’ your own unique radio experience by scrolling and playing the audio and video files. Don’t be afraid to get lost or feel a little bit chaotic. You’ve got to play it to believe it!

How does a traditional song stand the test of time? How does this music connect us in our shared humanity? In this concert we will explore how humans are able to reframe, revise, re-tell, and re-create the songs of their ancestors in ways that make them fresh and relevant to new generations.

Unlike imagemaking, our daily soundmaking practice exists one moment and disappears the next.  What if we could return to every sound we created as a physical object, hear it again exactly as it was born, reflect on it, discuss it with others, and find collective meaning, compassion, and inspiration through it?

Music has the power to heal wounds that you didn’t even know existed. In our current lived experiences, grief and loss are synonymous with our real and virtual experiences. Can sound help us regenerate and recreate ourselves in every realm of being? Can we heal through a deep dive of technological pathways that shed your current skin? Technology and music give us immense power to be able to heal ourselves and recreate the world we want to live in. This manifestation coupled with the power of collaboration creates endless possibilities to invoke a sense of collective healing.

Featuring Caio de Souza (Brazil), Raldie Young (Nigeria), Daniel Schreiner (USA), Carla Derpic (Bolivia), and Kira Weinstein (Russia) with Sanaya Ardeshir (India)
