A SWEEP is a sine tone, continously increasing within the human
hearing range, starting at 20Hz going up to 20kHz. Similary to the
oscillation of this kind of test signal, the focus of the SWEEP
symposium is dynamic. Thus SWEEP is highlighting areas of the
arts and sciences of sound, of the „legacies“ according to
Blumenberg and the presence of sound research. In the course of the
two-days event, the question of how transdisciplinary
collaborations impact on the process of research, artistic work
and the methods in-between is of particular interest.
SWEEP – INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON SOUND RESEARCH will be held at the BAU KUNST ERFINDEN studios for experimental materials research and development of the ASL School of Architecture, Urban Planning and Landscape Architecture, at the Universität Kassel, Germany. One of the speakers will be Prof. Sabine Breitsamer (Hochschule Darmstadt).
Date:
May 18, 2016, 12.00 – 20.00
May 19, 2016, 10.00 –16.00
In the past, the University of Kassel has contributed to sound research as a field, with the work of urbanist and sociologist Detlev Ipsen, who investigated sound characteristics of spaces and places. Ipsen also initiated a number of interdisciplinary conferences, among them "Klangwege" in 1991, that was dedicated to the sound walk, as an acoustic derivation of the famous strollology (Sapziergangswissenschaft) by Lucius Burkhardt, who also worked here.
Within the SWEEP Sound Research Symposium, artists, researchers and teachers from five countries and of nine universities, Focuses will present their contributions to the fields of Critical Analysis as well as emipirical research, research design in selected environments and in the field of Artistic Research.
The Symposium is a joint event of the BAU KUNST ERFINDEN Research Platform of the ASL, School of Architecture, Urban Planning and Landscape Architecture at the University of Kassel, and the School of Media and Information at Offenburg University of Applied Sciences.
