Saturday 17th January 2015 from 7.15pm to 8.15pm. [live broadcast]
DIVAcontemporary radio LIVE :: ivon oates and Marc Yeats in conversation

Conversation themes/agenda:
ivon – I wish to open a space between definitions of ‘music’/soundwork, art-object (found object, ‘rubbish’+ intent)

Marc – experimental ‘sound’ making is inspiring as a composer: exploring the degree of investigation, intent, organizing material and finding ways to make the object ‘speak’.

The discussion will consider:
Relationship between music/’noise’/sound.
Field recording (as ‘composed’), treated sounds, composition.
‘musical instruments’, sounding sculpture.

Thresholds of transformation: composition as the nodal confluence between axes from instrument, extended technique enlarging palette to ‘music’; and found sounds, sounding materials to artwork (sculpture, installation).

Audio from the sound walks and the material sounds experiment played in the studio before and after the talk.
